Mushroom Festival (Sagra dei Funghi) – Cusano Mutri (BN)
Delicious Autumn in Campania. It’s such a wonderful time of year to sip, taste, and explore with the wide-variety of local seasonal and artisanal products that are available throughout the region. During this time I like to attend the food festivals, called sagre in Italian, as they offer a chance to celebrate the season’s best as you delve into the very soul the culture of each respective place and their food traditions.
One of my autumn favorites is the Mushroom Festival (Sagra dei Funghi), which takes place in the charming medieval village of Cusano Mutri —deep within the hills of Benevento. It’s a lively event, so deliciously rich in festivities that it attracts crowds of people from all over Italy. And I must say, it’s no surprise.
