“I'd like to propose a toast to the garden, to this beautiful planet, and to the gardener. You know, some people have gardens, some people don't. But, they need to have a garden because Grandfather used to say, “We are all a garden in the world." So, I give thanks to the garden and the gardener.” —Carlo MontesantiAnd so, we have gathered to the final course in this banquet, Dolce. Dessert. Here at this table, we reflect on inheritance. Returning once more to conversations with Carlo Montesanti, Jessie Jowers, and Arianna Gelpke, this episode lingers on to ask if we can remember landscapes, and if we can do so over a shared meal. What does it mean to grow (food, family, and tradition), in a world that has increasingly been shaped by speed, extraction, automation and touristic ideals? Amidst these changes, what remnants will we be able to conserve? In "Dolce," we continue our walk at Slow Life Family Farm, moving between memory, archaeology and rituals made at the dinner table and reflect on the legacy of slow food—that it is not a cuisine and, maybe even, not exclusive to the romantic imagings of Italian provincial life. Perhaps, it is about the way we attend to Earth and care for its continuity, asking not what we can take from it, but what we can give in return. We also join Arianna at Corzano e Paterno to discuss the process of "reading the grapes" and the factors that influence wine-making. This episode contemplates sweetness as something more than a flavour, as a longing for ways of living that keep us in relation to one another and the land which feeds us. Fat of The Land is a series that asks us what we mean when we look for connection between people and the land. Following a desire for real relation, for deliciousness, and for slowness, each episode traces what happens when we follow this desire. This episode is brought to you by generous sponsorships from Ritū and Terra Elaÿa. Music and sound design in this episode is brought to you from the For The Wild Studio.Thank you to Carlo and Jessie of Slow Life Family Farm and Arianna of Fattoria Corzano and Paterno for joining us in conversation.BiographiesCarlo Montesanti: Born in Siracusa, Carlo is an esteemed English-speaking guide in Eastern Sicily, known for his work with BBC nature documentaries and Netflix's Chef's Table series.Jessie Jowers: With a passion for the traditional uses of plants, Jessie brings a wealth of knowledge about local crafts, foods, and medicines to our farm's daily life. Arianna Gelpke: Arianna Gelpke is a representative of Fattoria Corzano and Paterno, working in the family farm, and wine, cheese and oil production. She is passionate for nature and working with the land in the pursuit of sustainable agriculture and high-quality artisan produce. Since Wendelin Gelpke purchased Corzano in 1971 and the subsequent addition of Paterno in 1974, the two-hundred-hectare farm has developed along three different lines: wine and oil production, artisanal sheep's cheese production, and “Agriturismo.”Partners RitūFat of The Land is a series about what it means to be in relationship with land, food, and the people who tend both across generations.

Fat of The Land, Episode 4, Contorni“Mother Earth is really asking us to touch the soil… it's not just enough to pray. We need to put our hands in the soil.” —Carlo MontesantiContorni. The side dishes, or the surroundings. In this fourth episode of our series Fat of The Land, we turn towards the question of taste: how it is cultivated and remembered. Through conversations with Carlo Montesanti and Arianna Gelpke, the episode traces the shifting contours of Italian food culture amid tourism, commercialisation, supermarket convenience, and the global appetite for an imagined “Italian cuisine.” What happens to taste when food becomes spectacle, an export or a brand? And, what tastes are lost? Can they ever be reclaimed?Moving across Sicily and Tuscany, this episode reflects on taste as not just as a matter of preference but as a way of reading the earth. Contorni provokes us to consider taste in all of its forms: sensorial, cultural, economic and ecological. What desires for taste reveal about hunger itself: hunger for nourishment, nostalgia, identity, and connection to a place past… or of the now.

ROMA (ITALPRESS) - Calano le presenze negli agriturismi. A evidenziarlo è Agriturist. Giugno e luglio hanno rilevato una discreta presenza di turisti, ma anche una diminuzione della durata dei soggiorni e un certo calo in quasi tutte le regioni. Oltre il 55% delle strutture registra una minore affluenza rispetto allo stesso periodo degli anni precedenti, mentre solo il 20% conferma i dati delle scorse annate. Tra le regioni più richieste Puglia, Toscana e Calabria, seguite da Sicilia, Piemonte, Lazio e Liguria. Gli italiani sono circa il 48%, mentre gli stranieri provengono soprattutto dal Centro e Nord Europa. Germania, Svizzera, Inghilterra, Polonia, Bielorussia, Austria, Francia e Olanda sono i Paesi i cui turisti prediligono la vacanza in un agriturismo italiano, a contatto con la natura, con la tradizione enogastronomica e spesso con l'arte. Cambia la tipologia di clientela: se prima ad affollare gli agriturismi erano le famiglie con bambini, adesso i principali ospiti sono le coppie.col/gtr

Reisen heißt entdecken - wir präsentieren dir zwei charmante Agriturismo in der Po-Ebene! Die beiden Tipps sind gute Zwischenstopps auf einer Cabrio-Tour in den tiefen Süden Italiens und wieder zurück, um eine angemessene „Tagesstrecke“ zu haben. Beide Locations sind fast zu schade für nur eine Nacht, sondern gute Ausgangspunkte, um die jeweilige Region zu erkunden. Lerne einen Ort kennen, wo du Slow Food empfohlenes Olivenöl mitnehmen kannst und der Unterschied von Antipasto zum schwäbischen Vesperbrett klar wird: Danach endet nicht, sondern beginnt das Essen! Die Philosophie „kilometro zero“ wird auch in unserer zweiten Empfehlung gelebt. Auch wenn Burkhard die Erklärung für den secondo nicht ganz verstanden hat, hat er ihn trotzdem bestellt – und erzählt dir etwas über die regionale Wein-Empfehlung. Höre, warum das Dessert von Betina an eine Stauferburg in Apulien erinnert und warum du immer einen Tisch mit reservieren solltest.

Traumhafte Landschaften, romantische Dörfer, tolle Städte, wunderbares Essen, all das verbinden wir mit der Toskana. Mit Michael Timm reisen wir in die Toskana, es gibt viele Empfehlungen zu Sehenswürdigkeiten, Stell- und Campingplätzen. Kommt mit ... # Hinweis: Es gibt Sprungmarken # Vielleicht ist die Toskana DAS deutsche Reiseziel in Italien, auf jeden Fall ist es spätens seit Goethes Italienreise beliebt. Zypressenalleen in einer hügeligen Landschaft mit einer großen Villa am Horizont, dass ist das Bild, was die meisten sofort haben, wenn sie an die Toskana denken. Es gibt aber auch Cowboys in der Maremma, etruskische Pyramiden, Chianti, Montipulciano für Weinliebhaber und vieles mehr zu entdecken.

“A normal day in the countryside starts with a local breakfast, then you can enjoy a tour of the farm where you understand from the vineyards to the final product, how we produce this product. You can go into the tasting room where you can try all the balsamic vinegar, then have lunch with traditional Emilian dishes with balsamic vinegar. So from the grape to the final plate you can understand the process.” We're in great company with Umberto Sereni, General Manager of Agruturismo Acetaia Sereni working alongside his parents, Pier Luigi and Elisabetta, and siblings, Francesco and Frederica, in stewarding the family name and business. As the 4th generation to produce and preserve the most precious vinegars in the world, Acetaia Sereni remains synonymous with the quality and craft that goes into Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP. In this episode, Umberto shares his passion for welcoming and educating guests from all over the world, inviting them to visit his family's Agriturismo where they share best of the Emilian culinary traditions, Modena experiences, and Italian hospitality, topped with Acetaia Sereni “Black Gold.” Top Takeaways [2:15] Since the 1930's the Sereni family has stewarded the terroir of the Italian countryside, producing some of the most precious vinegars in the world. [5:50] For the past 10 years, Umberto expresses how he's welcomed in the challenges in learning how to run a restaurant and hospitality business, while his guests are welcomed to experience this way of living in person. [8:00] What Umberto has learned from his visionary of a father, Pier Luigi in inventing the concept of tours and tastings to showcase their craft, and his dedicated mother, Elisabetta in her passion for supporting their family's work and workers. [14:30] Sandwiched between Modena and Bologna in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy is a small piece of paradise perched upon a hilltop, surrounded by vineyards and panoramic views. [16:20] From cooking and baking classes to ebike and horseback tours, from test driving Ferrari and Lamborghini motorcars to sitting poolside for Aperitivo paired with Parmigiano Reggiano, there is so much to savor at and around Agriturismo Acetaia Sereni. [19:00] What makes Acetaia Sereni one of the best and last Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP products, from owning the full “grape growing to bottling,” appreciating the slow aging process, and reserving certain barrels for special moments. [23:40] Expect a touch of balsamic vinegar blended in or drizzled on every plate at Sereni a Tavola, from breakfast to dessert, and even mixed in an Aperitif or two. [33:30] The future of Acetaia Sereni is focused on innovation and preservation of balsamic vinegar, passion and investment in family and hospitality.

“And so you really are able to experience and meet the world from a very small and beautiful place, which makes you really aware of what's around you. Its a very cosmopolitan place in the countryside next to a tiny town.” We're in great company with Angelica Fenzi, the 4th generation of the Fenzi family to play her part in savoring, refining and celebrating the history of Fattoria San Donato, a small medieval village, working farm, winery and agriturismo immersed in the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside. Fattoria San Donato and the Fenzi family will always hold a special place in my heart and memory as it was here that Nick Beyer got down on one knee and asked me to marry him, set to the scene of the sun setting over the vineyards, as we nestled into a private picnic paired with the most perfect wine. As we celebrate the 1 year anniversary of our engagement, it brings me the greatest, most sincere pleasure to share this story of the place and the people that inspired Stay In Good Company. Top Takeaways [2:25] From a cherished childhood growing up on her family's agriturismo, Angelica moved to London to study anthropology and then Milan to study food and wine, before returning home with that education and appreciation for the terroir and architecture at Fattoria San Donato's doorstep. [8:10] Its a whole family affair to keep the fattoria fully functioning with Angelica overseeing the marketing, weddings and events, her sister Fiamma taking care of the animals, and her sister Benedetta learning her way around the vineyard and winery. [10:15] What Angelica's parents have taught her about kindness, generosity, and passion for food and wine. [11:50] How San Donato came to be, dating back to when it was a hilltop medieval village first documented in 971 AD, to when the Fenzi family purchased the property in 1932, slowly turning it into the farm, winery and agriturismo it is today. [19:00] Expect to experience all of your senses when you arrive at San Donato - the warmth of the sun, the smell of rosemary, the view of beautiful green hills, the taste of a crisp glass of Vernaccia, and the sound of laughter coming from the courtyard. [22:40] There's so much of Tuscany to explore without having to leave San Donato - from cooking classes to truffle hunting, a dip in the pool to yoga and meditation with horses, you'll learn the techniques, the history and the intention behind these cultural experiences. [26:45] Since the beginning, the Fenzi family has realized they too are guests passing through this place and thus their respect for nature allows the grapes to speak for themselves and be a reflection of the terroir. [42:00] What Angelica and her sisters aspire to do in being the next generation to steward San Donato, from showcasing more art, collaborating with local craftspeople, and continuing to celebrate the Tuscan gastronomy.

“Because I'm curious, I taste a lot of wines. Because I don't come from a wine making family, I created my own taste by tasting and discovery. I don't have any limits.” We're in great company with Faye Lottero, owner of her family estate, Fattoria Lavacchio, a place full of history between centuries-old vines, olive trees and Tuscan Dolce Vita. Originally built in 1700, the Lottero family made the estate their home in 1978 and after enjoying her childhood here, Faye returned in 1999 to lead the way for the biodynamic agriturismo that it is today, known for its excellence in wine, olive oil and “Organic Lifestyle.” In this episode and in celebration of International Women's Day, Faye shares about the importance of relationships - from her love of her family to her service in the community, from her care for the land to the curiosity of her mind, from a respect for tradition to a vision for innovation. Top Takeaways [1:30] From pursuing a career in law to returning home to the family farm, what inspired Faye to welcome guests onto their land and learn with them along the way. [6:30] While agricultural tasks are often stereotyped as jobs for men, Faye enjoys her days out in the vineyards with many other women on her team. [8:20] Being given the freedom to pursue her own dreams, Faye is inspired to raise her children with that same mindset. [15:50] How the symbol of a Cedar Tree, representing the longevity of a dynasty for noble Italian families, now stands for the past, present and future stewardship of Fattoria Lavacchio. [26:30] Whether guests pick out a picnic spread in the bottega, sit down to a multi course dinner and wine pairing, or take part in a cooking class, expect to experience “Tuscany on a plate.” [29:15] In collaboration with other local ladies, master distiller Priscilla Occhipinti and botanist Mara Fiesolani, Faye created a vermouth made of botanicals from her biodynamic fields aptly named Bouquet. [31:30] How truffle hunting with her dog taught Faye to truly appreciate the constant change in nature and the importance of biodynamic farming in recreating life in our land.

Ein Waffelshop in Florida, ein riesiger Bauernhof an der französischen Atlantikküste und ein Agriturismo in der Toskana. Mit diesen Träumen im Gepäck haben die Auswandererinnen und Auswanderer die Schweiz verlassen. Haben sie ihr Glück gefunden? Das zeigt «DOK» im «Auf und davon – Ein Jahr danach». Die Bauerfamilie Wieser wollte expandieren. Mit ihrer kleinen Rinderherde verliessen sie ihren Bauernhof im aargauischen Oberhof. Mit der Übernahme des Hofs «Les Aubiers» an der französischen Atlantikküste wurden sie über Nacht zu einem der wichtigsten Milchproduzenten der Umgebung. 400 Tiere und 240 Hektare Land – über zehn Mal mehr, als sie einst in der Schweiz bewirtschafteten. Trotz enorm hohem Arbeitsaufwand – die Rechnung ging für die Familie auf. Dieses Jahr nun erlebte Frankreich einen der trockensten Sommer seit Messbeginn. Das Land rief den Notstand aus, es galt ein Bewässerungsverbot. Die Landwirtschaft stand vor einer grossen Herausforderung. Wie erlebte Familie Wieser die Hitzewelle, was bedeutete für sie der Bewässerungsstopp? Marina Marrer und Mike Hostettler waren bestens vorbereitet, als sie in die USA auswanderten. Endlich ihren American Dream leben. Ihr Projekt: einen eigenen Waffelshop betreiben. Doch das Schicksal meinte es nicht gut mit ihnen. Kaum angekommen, brach die Pandemie aus. Der Umbau ihres Waffellokals ging nur schleppend voran – die Verzögerung kostete sie viel Geld. Mit der verspäteten Eröffnung des Geschäfts kehrte das Glück zurück. Ihr Waffelshop lief wie geschmiert. Bald schon standen die beiden ehemaligen Polizisten gut 100 Stunden in der Woche in ihrem Geschäft. Dies mit schlimmen Folgen: Mike hatte einen Zusammenbruch und Marina trug plötzlich die alleinige Verantwortung für ihr Geschäft. Kaum ging es Mike besser, eröffnete er ein Tätowier-Studio. Wie steht es heute um ihr Glück? Kommt Mikes Tätowier-Kunst bei den Amerikanern an? Die beiden haben Zuwachs: Alina, Mikes Tochter, verbringt ein Austauschjahr bei ihnen. Und auch Marina hegt eigene Pläne. Eva Dudle und Philippe Sguaitamatti sind schon im Rentenalter, als sie gemeinsam einen grossen Coup wagten. In der Toskana übernahmen sie eine Anlage mit einem Wohnhaus, sechs Ferienhäusern und 18 Hektaren Land. Ihr ambitionierter Plan: Sie wollten ein Agriturismo eröffnen. Doch schwerwiegende Unstimmigkeiten verunmöglichten schlussendlich, das Projekt gemeinsam weiterzuziehen. Es kam zum Bruch. Ein Jahr danach ist alles nochmals ganz anders.
“It's so easy to get caught up with keeping up with The Joneses, that when we got to rural Italy, it was your garden that was important. Who cares what you're making, what are you growing? It was just a different emphasis on what was important.” We're in great company with Ashley Bartner, Co-Founder and Co-Owner of La Tavola Marche, where she and her husband Jason, invite you to “discover Italy at its roots…if you're willing to muddy your feet that is.” Back in 2007, Ashley and Jason left the hustle and bustle of NYC in search for a slower way of life, finding themselves as American expats in the Marche countryside of Italy. Here, they've created La Tavola Marche, a unique culinary experience where guests actively participate in Italian culture through seasonal activities paired with local artisans, farmers, and wine makers while staying in a 500 year-old farmhouse agriturismo. In this episode, Ashley shares what led them to curate these experiences - searching for the best seasonal local ingredients, hands-on cooking classes, and the conviviality of the table - connecting with their guests and local community through food, culture, and land. Top Takeaways [5:28] “Oprah says live your wildest dreams, and so I think we should move to Italy.” [11:36] How being a young foreign couple full of curiosity in a small Italian town led the locals to take Ashley and Jason under their wing. [20:25] “Walk away.” Having to give up on one house seems meant to be in hindsight having come across their current home. [28:15] The significance behind “La Tavola Marche” in celebrating everything that happens around the table. Even if it is not in perfect Italian. [32:15] “You're coming to get your hands dirty and muddy your feet,” from picking vegetables in the garden to learning whole hog butchery if your appetite allows. [42:15] A peak at what's on the menu at La Tavola Marche and how it varies season to season. [47:30] Gardening tips and tricks begins with…bigger is not always better. [49:37] There's no such thing as the “Slow Food Movement” when you live on an Agriturismo in the countryside of Italy. [1:00:45] Where to venture out in search for the best views, seafood, gelato, and of course wine. [1:06:45] Expect to find some more animals in residence at La Tavola Marche in their next chapter.

Ein Juwel zum Genießen und relaxen am Eingang des Salento ist die Masseria Stali. Das Agriturismo liegt ca. 15 Km südlich von Lecce und ist ein echter Ruhepunkt auf einem geschichtsträchtigen Ort: Hier werden seit Jahrhunderten Reisende und Flüchtlinge beherbergt und verköstigt, und auch für dich ist das ein strategisch guter Ausgangspunkt zwischen adriatischem und ionischem Meer! Du hörst, wie uns die Zimmer in den ehemaligen Stallungen des Bauernhofs und das großzügige Areal mit Pool und Sonnenliegen gefallen und welchen hervorragenden Vorteil der 270 Hektar große landwirtschaftliche Familienbetrieb im eigenen Restaurant gekonnt ausspielt! Wenn du mit Blick auf den Primitivo-Weinberg deine Finger durch die riesigen Rosmarin-Sträucher gleiten lässt und mit dem herrlich mediterranen Duft in der Nase den kleinen Eidechsen hinterherschaust, die auf den hellen Sandsteinen im sehr gepflegten Garten umher flitzen, dann weißt du: Jetzt bist du in Apulien! Erfahre, wie eine sehr nette und gut gelaunte Crew dir wirklich das Gefühl gibt, ein sehr geschätzter Gast zu sein, und was eine ganz besondere Bruschetta dazu beiträgt
Duncan is mellow........pleasantly smooth. As executive chef of Rootstock Wine Bar near Humboldt Park, he has an appreciation for cuisine one can only gain from travel. Born & raised in the Chicago area, he got his first experience in hospitality at a Country Club, before heading to Honolulu to work at a Chili's and experience something different. After attending culinary school, he got a job at Lula Cafe in Logan Square, and his mentor Jason Hammel eventually pushed him to go travel Europe and acquire some real respect for the art of food. After working at an Agriturismo in Italy on top of a mountain, and living in a staff house in England, he came back to Chicago in late 2009 and right off the plane, answered the call to be the executive chef at Rootstock. Serving up unique wines to go and leveraging great relationships with local farms, the restaurant has become a secret haven of high quality, with a small space and no reservations taken. Follow @rootstockbar on Instagram, and come by the Humboldt Park restaurant to experience a taste of, whatever is freshest, in the area.
Welcome to Episode #12: We kick off Season 2 with a wonderful conversation with the delightful Ashley Bartner of La Tavola Marche, a Cooking School, Farm and Agriturismo in Italy.Ashley and her husband Jason moved to Italy thirteen years ago from New York with a plan to create their own business off the beaten track in the region of Le Marche. With a big dream in their back pocket and hearts full of enthusiasm they both ventured into the world of farm life, cooking schools and the Italian Lifestyle.It wasn't without its trials and tribulations (whatever good thing ever is?) and that is a testament to their ability to keep moving forward no matter what the universe threw their way. I loved this conversation for a bunch of reasons. Not only is Ashley full of heart and zest for life but she is a generous person who not only loves what she does but shares it in spades in this conversation and in life. Ashley and Jason have pooled their talents to create a successful business and a hands on experience for the travelers who come from around the world to participate in their workshops and the region of the Le Marche.... the place they call home.Visit: www.latavolamarche.com for more information.
