LA SAGRA DEL FARRO (THE FESTIVAL OF FARRO)

farro ears

The Sagra del Farro takes place every year at Abbateggio, in mid-August, in occasion of the village patron's day, August 10th, San Lorenzo (Saint Lawrence)'s day.

This festival was born to celebrate a cereal that over the years has been superseded by the most modern grain qualities. In Abbateggio farro was rediscovered by the finding of some seeds of ancient peasant families. Subsequently this cereal spread to small local producers, becoming one of the symbols of this village.

During the festival it is possible to taste this cereal in many variants, from the more rustic dishes made according to tradition, to more modern re-elaborations to satisfy every kind of palate.
