Green Peas Food Festival & Market in Pozzolo

Festa dei Bisi de Pozzolo 2022

Every year in Pozzolo di Villaga spring is announced by the harvesting of the BISI: the tasty peas of Pozzolo, in fact, arrive early, favoured by the particular composition of soil and ideal climate.

The tasty and delicate ‘Bisi de Pozzolo’ remain the best seasoning for the “tajadele de casa”, while the characteristic “risi e bisi” is still a sought-after dish. These and other specialities can be tasted with respect for tradition in many restaurants of the area, which still favors the traditional cuisine, simple and genuine.

As per tradition, after two long years of stop, the center of Pozzolo di Villaga hosts the festival dedicated to bisi with the food and wine stand and the exhibition/ market of local agricultural products. Program:
