The Barcelona pagesa book was presented by the Diputació de Barcelona publishing house in the fall of 2024. The title is a mosaic of dialogues, photographs and ideas focused on tradition, but above all, innovation in contemporary agriculture. Through interviews with 27 farmers from the province of Barcelona, the book not only brings these people’s lives closer, but also presents the challenges they face in their industry.

Barcelona pagesa is about creativity and sustainability, but most importantly, about the relationship between human beings and the land they take care of.
