Alimentar Barcelona

Feeding the population has always been a concern for cities. It has always been a decisive key issue in their relationship with their territories and its people, in the evolution of centuries of technologies to obtain food products and in the conditions in which men and women have been able to nourish themselves and sustain life. Ensuring food supply and security has always been one of the main occupations of the Consell de Cent, the municipal institution of Barcelona created in 1249.
