Make Authentic Pesto by Hand in Liguria’s Olive Heart Join us in Lucinasco, a charming hilltop village surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, and discover the true taste of Liguria. At our family-run farm, you’ll pick fresh basil from the garden, learn the secrets of traditional pesto making, and crush ingredients the old-fashioned way — with mortar and pestle. As the aroma of basil and olive oil fills the air, we’ll share stories of our land and our passion for authentic flavors. After crafting your own pesto, enjoy a guided tasting of our farm products paired with two glasses of local wine (or non-alcoholic options), carefully selected by Giada. It’s a delicious, hands-on experience that connects you to the people, traditions, and tastes that make this corner of Italy so special. Hosted by Cesarine, Italy’s oldest network of passionate home cooks, this unique class offers an authentic perspective that no restaurant can provide. Join us to cook, taste, and experience Umbria like a local!
