Farmers’ markets selling local and seasonal produce
High-quality food is one of the things that Italians love most: cured meats and cheeses, along with vegetables and typical local products, are the mainstay of this excellence in food. So why not buy into this lifestyle by purchasing directly from the farmer, the grower or the maker to benefit your own health and the planet's?
Opting for a sustainable diet means choosing fresh and healthy produce sourced from local environmentally-minded growers selling ‘zero-miles’ produce that respects food biodiversity and available resources. Check out our tips on the markets where you can buy typical and sustainable products to take a piece of Milan home ... or taste it on the spot!
