Vegetable gardens like vineyards are a widespread reality in Sardinia, particularly in the south. Many families own and manage a vegetable garden sufficient for family production or little more, and this makes it possible to consume seasonal fruit and vegetables at zero kilometre. Zero kilometre is also a boast for many of the island’s fruit and vegetable shops, which instead manage much larger plots of land.

The first stop on our tour will be a visit between the rows of a beautiful local vegetable garden to learn about the genuine seasonality of fruit and vegetables. Together we will gather seasonal produce, understand how it is grown, and then move on to a fascinating location: the ancient wine warehouse Da Zia Pinuccia-Home Restaurant, a place where time seems to stand still. Emanuela and Stefano, creators of the home restaurant, will welcome us in an atmosphere evocative of the old houses of the past: a wood-fired oven, local-style furniture and kitchen utensils are just a few aspects that will catch you at first glance. Immediately afterwards, the aromas and flavours of the recipes that we will prepare and taste will totally capture you. Once you walk through the small front door you will forget the world outside. A regenerating experience.
