The land is generous and offers us all year round a variety of fresh, tasty products ready to be harvested and transformed into a delicious meal.<\/p>\n

Together with an expert guide who will tell us about the territory, from the main entrance of Cadenazzo SBB train station we will walk (approx. 20 minutes) to Caritas Ticino organic farm (CatiBio) in the Magadino Plain Park, which forms part of the Swiss Parks Network.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by an expert farmer, we will head out into the field where we will be shown how to harvest vegetables carefully to preserve their freshness and flavour. We will smell the scent of the earth and the newly picked vegetables in the air, feeling a connection with nature.<\/p>\n

After the harvest we will make our way to the rustic kitchen, where we will work together to prepare a delicious dish that enhances the freshness and goodness of the vegetables we have picked. This will be an exciting opportunity that teaches us about the importance of biodiversity and sustainable farming, making us feel a real sense of gratitude to Mother Earth and our dining companions.<\/p>\n
