WE NEED YOUR HELP TO SAVE THE TUSCAN COUNTRYSIDE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

The Montagnola Senese is one of the world’s most beautiful cradles of civilization. Home to Etruscan peoples and to Romanesque and Gothic architectural gems, it is where we experience glorious patchworks of olive groves, sunflowers, and forests, lined with cypresses, and hear— the roar of airplane engines?

There is a tiny ex-military airstrip located just south of the medieval city of Siena, Italy. Business interests are pushing to transform the Ampugnano airstrip into a big, commercial airport. The people of this region are fighting hard against the airport because it will damage forever this incredibly beautiful and preserved region THEY NEED OUR HELP!
