The Festival in Cervia

Cervia Thistle is a food for connoisseurs because it is produced in small quantities and it's only eaten during the winter, that is why Cervia town is dedicating a real food and wine festival to it again this year!

It will also be possible to taste and buy innovative products linked to this particular sand vegetable with important nutritional and energetic qualities, rich in vitamin C and vitamin B5, such as herbal teas, liqueurs, jams, and patés.
