Paella in the Gardens: a gastronomic journey through local flavors

Mediterranean tradition in a rural context

On June 20, 2026, the Paella in the Gardens event offers a synthesis between the gastronomic culture of the Iberian Peninsula and the agricultural vocation of the territory. The event takes place within a cultivated area, characterized by a biodiversity that reflects the deep bond between the land and sustainable cultivation practices. This space, usually dedicated to vegetable production, is transformed for the occasion into an open-air banquet.

An experience of gastronomic traceability

The core of the day is the live preparation of paella, executed according to traditional standards. The choice of ingredients follows a criterion of strict seasonality and local origin, ensuring an authentic narrative of the soil's resources. Cooking on-site allows participants to observe the phases of product transformation, in a balance between culinary technique and respect for the raw materials harvested just a few steps from the service stations.

The landscape as a cultural framework

The initiative invites reflection on the link between food production and urban space. Located in a context that preserves rural identity despite its proximity to densely populated centers, the host site serves as a green lung. The use of the gardens on this specific day facilitates immersion in an environment aimed at tranquility and community sharing, distancing itself from the dynamics of daily city life and favoring a dimension of slow and conscious enjoyment. The structure of the event promotes sociability based on exchange and appreciation of natural resources, making the experience a moment of dialogue between man, the landscape, and the agricultural product.
