When autumn arrives in the Piedmont mountains, the forests transform into generous pantries of hidden treasures. 'Funghi in Piazza' in Ciriè celebrates this magic, turning the historic centre of this town at the gates of the Valli di Lanzo into a fascinating open-air market dedicated to forest mushrooms. An unmissable opportunity for mountain gastronomy enthusiasts and anyone wishing to discover the authentic flavours of the season. The event is a complete immersion into the world of mushrooms: from food stalls where porcini risotto, chanterelle tagliatelle and rustic soups delight even the most discerning palates, to mycological exhibitions that reveal the biodiversity of our forests. For families, educational workshops teach children how to identify species, while specialised conferences guide experienced and curious foragers towards conscious and sustainable harvesting. In a convivial and fragrant atmosphere, Ciriè becomes the capital of Piedmont mushrooms for a day, offering the chance to also taste alpine cheeses and other local specialities. Guided forest walks in the surrounding woods complete the experience, allowing you to truly understand the unbreakable bond between territory, tradition and mountain cuisine.
