Cece ribelle

In the heart of the Pollino National Park, in Latronico, Cece Ribelle celebrates a humble legume transformed into the protagonist of a culinary and cultural narrative deeply rooted in Lucanian tradition. The local chickpea, cultivated according to traditional agricultural practices, represents not only an identity ingredient but a living symbol of the territory's biodiversity and sustainability.

The gastronomic stalls of the festival offer a fascinating journey through the humble yet hearty cuisine of the region, where the chickpea becomes the foundation of dishes that tell generations of peasant wisdom and respect for nature's cycles. Every preparation celebrates seasonality and the intimate connection between people and land, alongside other typical products that complete the Pollino's food and wine panorama.

Beyond its culinary dimension, Cece Ribelle establishes itself as a space for conscious reflection on sustainable agriculture and the preservation of rural traditions. Amid music, meetings, and moments of shared conviviality, the festival invites you to rediscover the value of ancient knowledge and the importance of protecting local agri-food practices in the context of an increasingly aware modernity.
