The story
Nestled at the foot of the Castle of Poppi, the Orto del Castello di Poppi is a vegetable garden and farm stand that earned a perfect five-star rating. Sentieri Golosi stopped by during a Casentino prosciutto hunt and bought a haul of fresh produce.
“We bought fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, peppers, and watermelon — all very good,” they noted. The simple act of picking up peak-season vegetables directly from the source is the draw. Dishes highlighted include tomatoes and cucumbers, but the full basket speaks to the farm’s generous bounty. It’s a rustic, local spot that captures the essence of Poppi.
