Beyond being a charming rural accommodation, Solmark wants to favour the change of aconventional agriculture to a sustainable and ecological agriculture<\/strong>,\u00a0and also promote ecological tourism in Andalusia. To do so,\u00a0 it offers solutions for rural depopulation in the area\u00a0 (activities, workshops, events and talks) and teaches new progressive ideas for\u00a0 caring\u00a0for and respecting the environment. During the event, some of the upcoming initiatives it is organising were shown, such as\u00a0the \u201cHarvest Festival for the Olive Tree Sponsorship\u201d\u201d\u00a0that will be held on 23 November.<\/p>\n
