The stable pastures behind good cheese and honey

Pastures may be considered stable when they’re not subject to any chemical treatments, where no herbicides or pesticides are used. They’re agricultural fields where different species of flowers and grasses grow wild, without human intervention.

Stable pastures are fundamental for the conservation of biodiversity, both animal and vegetable. They offer animals a healthy, authentic diet, and consequently better, cleaner milk. Indeed, animal welfare is a critical element for cheese quality: happier animals produce better milk both from a nutritional and sensory perspective.

In this Taste Workshop we’ll taste a variety of cheeses made from the milk of animals who spend their lives on stable pastures in Italy, and learn to appreciate their complexity of flavor and aroma, as well as honeys from the same stable stures.

The honeys are selected and presented by AMI –  Ambasciatori mieli

To pair, the wines of Cascina Castlet, Valle Isarco Kellerei and Corte Adami.as selected by the Wine Bank of Pollenzo Banca del Vino Pollenzo – Italy

Tickets are available online until September 21. During the event you can purchase any remaining tickets at the Event Reception in Parco Dora.
