Basil Farm Image

Unleashing your inner epicure, with lunch

Discover pesto from the ground up! Visit a terraced heritage farm where basil grows as far as the eye can see. Then stop at a processing facility where it is readied for various uses, learning everything you wanted to know about this enigmatic herb. Later visit a market where an expert chef will teach you how to make traditional pesto with mortar and pestle (pre food processors – taste the difference!) Finish with a leisurely lunch: “trofie”, the typical Ligurian pasta, dressed with the pesto you made and accompanied by other local specialties: focaccia, vegetable pies, fried vegetables and fish, and a glass of local wine.
