Festival del Gusto

Our aim at Festivaldelgusto  is to assist clients and friends who wish to hold artisan food festivals and fairs both in Italy, Malta and also in the UK, and we are now pleased to be planning with two of our friends to hold two events in Norfolk in the spring and summer of 2014. We are also in the early stages of planning several festival events in Italy next year, one will be held in Le Marche and possibly two others in the Italian regions of Puglia and also Sicily, these will be in addition to our planned event in Malta next May. At one of our UK events we will be helping the owners of a popular restaurant with a large market and food fair near the Norfolk town of Swaffham, this will be held on Saturday 19th April over the Easter holiday period. The event will be on land near the main restaurant building which is located near the main road from Thetford and London to the North Norfolk coast which is a popular route with many travelling from London for holidays in Norfolk.

Il Festivaldelgusto si terrà vicino Senigallia nelle Marche il 14 Settembre e sarà la prima occasione per molti dei piccoli produttori organici e biodinamici delle Marche di incontr...

There are many small and large olive oil producers who offer tours and tastings at their estates and farms throughout Italy. But apart from large olive oil schools which offer classes on tasting and horticulture for producers and professional buyers there are very few dedicated olive oil schools solely aimed at the general public and small trade buyers. Organisations such as  ASSAM  in Le Marche and other similar bodies throughout Italy hold courses, teaching classes, workshops and certification services, these all being essential for professional olive oil producers. One of the aims of the Festival del Gusto is to help bring organic and biodynamic producers in Italy together with interested members of the public and organisations who wish to hear more about these increasingly important methods of production of our food and wine. Another important aim we have is to set up and run olive oil schools offering workshops, tasting classes and lectures by small olive oil producers...
