Attendees will be offered samples since the best storyteller is taste.

"A diet rich in these foods not only boosts our well-being but also plays a crucial role in preventing many health issues. Our initiative endorses the quality and sustainability of Italian and European produce, reflecting health guidelines from the National Health Service and the World Health Organisation: aim for at least five servings daily."
