Demeter's gifts
What gifts did Demeter offer to the mankind? Who was her daughter and how does her story bring us hope? The myth of Demeter and the daughter Persephone is the starting point which is followed by a visit to the threshing floor and the traditional wood-fired oven, so that the participants learn about the importance of growing cereals, about agricultural occupations, and the change of seasons while they hear related traditional customs, beliefs and songs.

A handful of handmade “herissia” pasta
In a small village a grandmother makes handmade pasta. Her grandchildren ask her to help her so she starts to explain all the steps and answering their questions. They go on cooking the pasta and enjoy a delicious meal which they liked so much that they want to stay there in the evening so that the grandmother will tell them stories from the village and songs and make pasta again. So it happened and the children learned the secrets of the recipe and cooked for the whole village and a whole feast stared.
