For The Keepers of Langhe-Roero, a pocket of rolling hills and forests in northwestern Italy, food represents a deep relationship between the community and the land that sustains them. And it comes with a lot of well-deserved pride.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s something you can feel in how they talk and the energy they radiate \u2013 through the produce they farm and forage to the animals they care for and nurture. Across vineyards and hillsides, this new generation of Keepers follow a way of life that\u2019s part of a long and far-reaching tradition, where every hazelnut, truffle and pail of milk is produced with passion. And a library of inherited knowledge.<\/p>\n
But they\u2019re also making it new \u2013 taking what\u2019s \u201cpast\u201d and anchoring it to a future of organic and regenerative farming. In so doing, they\u2019re reviving this quiet corner of Italy into a center for the Slow Food Movement.<\/p>\n
And this trip invites you to see how they work, live and think \u2013 understanding what it means to rely on the land. In the words of Paolo, one of the Keepers you\u2019ll meet, the food they grow and eat here \u201cis a postcard of the mountains, the woods, the territory\u201d. You’ll walk away with a totally recalibrated appreciation for the food we eat and the natural landscapes we depend on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
