The colors and scents of the exhibits guided visitors on a journey of discovery through the park and its natural habitats.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event also featured guided tours, booths dedicated to crafts, and food and wine areas where wines and products from the Tierre Organic Farm were showcased. The exhibition thus brought together botanical culture, agricultural production, and knowledge of the local area.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With <strong>\u201cBosco nel Piatto<\/strong>,\u201d biodiversity has instead become the starting point for a culinary experience. The activity took participants on a guided walk through the centuries-old olive groves, the vineyard, and the historic estate\u2019s monumental park.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along the way, we identified and gathered <strong>edible wild herbs<\/strong> that grow naturally in the fields. The experience continued at the historic <strong>olive<\/strong> mill and the <strong>Olive Oil Museum<\/strong>, where the freshly picked herbs were used to prepare a few dishes to serve with aperitifs.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event concluded on the panoramic terrace with locally sourced foods and a glass of wine from Villa Cavalletti\u2019s selection. Cooking thus made it possible to transform what we observed and gathered in the park into a firsthand experience of knowledge and taste.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Botanicafolias and Bosco nel Piatto share the same vision: to bring the public closer to nature through observation, discovery, and sensory experiences. At Villa Cavalletti, biodiversity and gastronomy serve as tools for understanding the value of the agricultural landscape of the Castelli Romani.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Book your experience at VILLA CAVALLETTI at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villacavalletti.it\/en\/esperienze\/\">https:\/\/www.villacavalletti.it\/esperienze\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nature is not merely the setting in which Villa Cavalletti is located, but an essential part of the experiences offered to visitors.
