Visiting Riccione back-country Farmers
Two special Sundays.
If next Sunday advancing in the Riccione back-country will happen to you to see a picnic, a little further another one, then another, do not think it is an hallucination.
Nothing could be more real: since ten years in the two central Sundays of May, the agricultural landscape of Emilia-Romagna gets busy not for magic but thanks to Fattorie Aperte.
The event, sponsored by the Emilia-Romagna Region and become a model to imitate, returns on 11 and 18 May, 2008 and to celebrate the tenth anniversary invites everybody to discover also the naturalistic and historical-cultural routes surroundings.
In the province of Rimini 15 farms open their gates to reveal a world and give a day out to people who know very little about that environment: 3 are situated along the coast and 12 on the hills. Chosen the route you like more, from our hotels in Riccione it will be easy to reach the Open Farms of the province and to transform your stay in a gastronomic holiday.
You will taste the typical products of Romagna, suffer the charm of ancient folk traditions, learn the secrets of the harvesting and of the processing of foods and buy them at the source.
The collateral events are many: entertainment shows, visits to vineyards, fields or workshops, games of ancient time, organized excursions.
We suggest comfortable clothes and the reservation if you want to dine in some farm holidays.
In 1999, more than six thousand people visited farms open to the public, last year more than sixty thousand.
Born with the aim to promote good and healthy products of our farms and make people more conscious of their food consumption, over the years the tourist exploitation of a territory so rich from the historical, artistic and environmental point of view has become an integral part of the event.
Following the routes proposed for the 10th year of Fattorie Aperte, your Sundays really will be special.
