Festa del Broccolo
The “son of the wind” on your plate… and beyond
The Festa del broccolo di Torbole, the “son of the wind”, is back: a weekend where broccoli takes centre stage between lake and mountains.
If excellent broccoli is harvested in Torbole and Linfano even in the middle of winter, it’s thanks to Lake Garda and the Pelèr, the north-eastern wind that creates a unique microclimate.
During the festival you can enjoy a menu dedicated to the Broccolo di Torbole, explore the Villaggio del Broccolo in Piazza Lietzmann, where you’ll find freshly picked broccoli, taste local extra virgin olive oil together with the EvoTrentino tasters, and discover regional products presented by Slow Food.
The festival menu includes:
- Orzotto from Bleggio with Torbole broccoli
- toasted bread slice with Torbole broccoli leaf pâté and local extra virgin olive oil
- Torbole broccoli tartlet with ricotta and cocoa
Coffee, soft drinks and local wine
