Description
In the picturesque setting of Castel San Pietro, among historic alleys, rural courtyards, and landscapes painted in autumn colors, the event will offer a day dedicated to traditions, local flavors, and conviviality. The chestnut, a symbol of peasant culture and the autumn season, will take center stage through numerous culinary offerings: roasted chestnuts, typical sweets, jams, traditional Ticinese dishes, and regional specialties prepared by local associations and volunteers. The program will be enriched with folk music, entertainment for children, and moments dedicated to discovering the traditions of Mendrisiotto. The event aims to enhance not only the products of the area but also the cultural and landscape heritage of one of the most characteristic villages in southern Ticino.
