Drying bunches of oregano in Serrastretta, Calabria, Italy

Serrastretta is a tiny village at 1000 mt above the level sea, in the Calabrian mountains and is surrounded by immense and dense beech forests and chestnut trees and numerous sources of spring water.

Serrastretta was long called “the city of chairs,’’ because generations of artisans handcrafted furniture from beech wood with seats fashioned from woven reeds.

In the territory of Serrastretta also porcini mushrooms are found, particularly in areas where chestnut trees grow.

"The forest is not merely an expression or representation of the European spirit, but a fundamental element of it. The forest is both a symbol of tradition and a tangible expression of it, a physical reminder of the values and beliefs that have shaped Europe's history and culture for centuries." 

- Richard Mabey
