Farm to Table - Italian countryside style!

Vicki_R, Oct 2025

Wow! This was fabulously different…a cooking class using everything from the garden and it was delicious! We met Vivi at her house where she proceeded to give us coffee and a tour of her vast garden on a hill next to her house, her chickens and her adorably “talkative” and friendly geese. She has an unbelievable garden with everything edible. It was an inspiration to do this at home in California. She taught us how to make gnocchi and tiramisu and a lovely from-the-garden veggie soup, all in her fairy tale feeling kitchen. SHE IS SO KNOWLEDGABLE about herbs and nature and I felt like it was a short course in how to live and thrive on the land. So so cool. Highly recommend.

Definitely recommend for anyone looking to do something a little unconventional and off the beaten track!

My boyfriend and I decided to take a cooking class and when we saw the words "sustainable farm" and "forage" we knew we had found the right one. Vivi was such a wonderful host and so passionate about what she does. We met the animals around the farm and got to work identifying and foraging our herbs (definitely make sure to wear pants and t shirt, you're going to be on your hands and knees plucking the perfect herbs from the dirt). Once we finished collecting our herbs, Vivi explained all the different properties and uses of each. She assigned us various tasks-homemade bread, herb and egg salad (this might have been my favorite dish), vegetable soup, and pasta with a delicious, light tomato sauce- everything except the flour came from her farm! The class is supposed to last about 4 hours or so, but we were all having such a wonderful time enjoying each others company, that we must have spent 6-7 hours just talking and eating. This is not your conventional cooking class, but we had the most amazing experience. Vivi even sent us home with some seeds to plant in our own garden back home. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to do something off the beaten track!

Pratica cio che predichi

Viviane is very enthusiastic and really committed to her ambition to live her life in a different and sustainable way. And very much sharing her ideas and practice with others.
