Here everything comes directly from small-scale nearby farmers and food artisans who sell directly to the public, with no middlemen.
All their stalls fly the Slow Food flag and offer a wide variety of products of high quality at fair prices and and at its peak in freshness, flavor and nutritional value: fruit and vegetables, bread, pasta, rice, flour, legumes, cheeses, meat, salami, fish from Lake Garda, eggs, extra-virgin olive oil, wine, craft beer, honey, jams, mustards, syrups, fermented vegetables, apple cider, truffles, saffron, as well as many other local and seasonal products.
You'll quickly realize that it's not only the food that makes this Slow Food Market special, but also the people you meet. Here you can feel that everyone not only supports but lives the Slow Food philosophy, which aims to keep biodiversity and culinary traditions alive; to support small productions and local economies; to promote awareness about the impact of our food choices on the world around us.
It takes place in the gardens of the beautiful Piazza della Repubblica, with a circular shape lined with tall trees and a fountain in the middle. Last but not least it is located in a hilly territory near Verona and Lake Garda, rich in olive groves, vineyards and gastronomic traditions.
