Summer in Guardea comes alive with two unmissable events: the Arrosticini Festival, from July 17 to 26, and the Gnocchi Festival, from July 31 to August 10. Two events that celebrate local cuisine and share a common highlight: the extra virgin olive oil from the Cooperativa Oleificio di Guardea, a symbol of the region’s quality and tradition.
The oil that enhances every dish
At both events, our our olive oil is served with bruschetta, side dishes, and traditional recipes, bringing out their authentic flavors. The result of the work of Guardea’s olive growers, it represents the bond between the land, those who cultivate it, and those who choose to enjoy these evenings in a spirit of conviviality.
An ingredient that tells the story of the community
At the Gnocchi Festival , our olive oil is much more than just a condiment: it is the result of the dedication of the Cooperative’s members and the passion of the volunteers who keep the town’s traditions alive every year. Each dish thus becomes a story of collaboration, identity, and love for the local area.
Bring the flavors of Guardea home
If you enjoyed the taste of our extra virgin olive oil during the festivals, you can continue to use it at home as well. The can of 5 liters is available in on sale for €65 instead of €70: a balanced and versatile oil, ideal for enriching any recipe with the authentic flavor of our region.
