Menu with medicinal herbs and flowers in the restaurant of Casola Valsenio

Since the 70s Casola Valsenio has been known for its medicinal plants. A real culture around herbs was born thanks to the presence of the Giardino delle Erbe and the many initiatives started throughout the years around their cultivation. Casola Valsenio is known as the “Land of Forgotten Herbs and Fruits”. A visit to its Herb Garden is a must, perhaps during its “Lavender Day” or “Herbs in Bloom”. And after being intoxicated by its scents and colors between the cultivated stepsand the rows of lavender, let yourself be amazed by the original dishes that many of the restaurants in Casolana (and even an ice cream parlor, which has flavors of ice cream with herbs and forgotten fruits !!) offer with medicinal herbs, flower petals, and forgotten fruits. Immerse yourself in the flavors and colors of these plants with many uses, studied and combined in a creative way but without ever forgetting their tradition. As the Romagnola culture dictates!
