At the Sala Capriate (former Meucci) in Vernio, on Saturday 28 November at 4 pm, children become cooks for an afternoon. The cooks of the Italian Red Cross, Vernio Committee, guide participants in preparing castagnaccio, the autumn cake made with chestnut flour. You learn by kneading and discover a simple recipe, linked to the tradition of the area. The workshop is designed for children and for families who want to spend an afternoon together. The event is part of the series "Quando la terra si fa racconto", the autumn calendar of the Municipality of Vernio among flavours, landscapes and traditions. Reservation is required to take part.
