On an unexpectedly sunny and warm afternoon in May, Aziliz Le Rouzo, an agroecology researcher at SEI and I arrived at Alnarp’s agroecology farm, after a long and sweaty walk from the nearest train station. When we got to the farm, tucked between old buildings and greenery, it was like entering a place of calm and serenity. We were greeted by Mariana Forero, a law graduate from Colombia who joined the farm as an active volunteer for two years. She recently got employed there, and nowadays, she spends her days working on the farm, playing a pivotal role in keeping the business alive and flourishing.
