🌰 Chestnuts from Calabria – A Taste of Southern Folklore
Straight from the high forests of Decollatura, where autumn still smells like firewood, wine, and childhood memories.
🟤 More than a fruit – A living tradition
In Calabria, chestnuts are not just a seasonal delicacy. They are part of the soul of the people — a thread woven into the fabric of village life.
Every October, the mountain air fills with the aroma of roasted chestnuts, the crackling of fire pits, and the sound of folk songs and tambourines echoing through the hills.
Families gather under centuries-old chestnut trees, sharing stories, harvesting by hand, and keeping alive a tradition passed down for generations.

📜 A little folklore…
- 🌳 In Southern Italy, the chestnut tree was called “The Bread Tree” – it fed entire villages during the harshest winters.

- 💰 Chestnuts were once used as currency, medicine, and even in wedding rituals.
