Location and leisure

Tierra Salud is a project located in a large green space of 74 hectares that belongs to the Faculty of Agronomy of the University of Buenos Aires. A large part of the land makes up a park in which old shrub and tree specimens live, many of which are unique in the City of Buenos Aires. This place does not have the characteristics of other parks or squares in the city, rather it is somewhat more wild with wide green spaces, where the orchards and lands stand out where the students of the Agronomy and Veterinary Faculties carry out their practices, there are even usually cows and other farm animals in pens. All this makes it a very attractive place to enjoy nature.
