    From Farm to Table: An Authentic Tuscan Cooking Experience

    There’s a moment—often on a quiet Monday morning—when you find yourself imagining a peaceful walk through rows of vegetables in the garden, the scent of fresh earth mingling with the aroma of sun-ripened produce.

    This is just the beginning of a remarkable journey—one that celebrates the deep connection between nature, food, and Tuscan culture.

    The first smiles of the day appear as we begin harvesting fresh vegetables, straight from the garden.
    That’s how one of our most beloved experiences begins: our exclusive Tuscan cooking class,
    “From Farm to Table.”

    Cooking class farm to the table

    We start with what makes everything special—fresh, organic produce, handpicked together from our very own garden.
    Not just any garden, but one we’ve lovingly cultivated season after season, where each plant is nurtured with the same care and affection found in a grandmother’s kitchen.

    Here, you’ll touch, smell, and select the freshest ingredients directly from the soil.
    It’s a moment of genuine connection—with nature, with tradition, and with something beautifully simple: real food.

    Each ingredient has its own season, its own story, its own unique flavor.
    Seasonality is the heartbeat of our kitchen, and one of our greatest passions.
    Every time of year brings new colors, new aromas, and new inspiration to create:

    • In spring, tender greens and fresh herbs
    • In summer, juicy tomatoes and fragrant basil
    • In autumn, earthy squash and wild mushrooms
    • In winter, comforting soups and heartwarming dishes

    With our hands full of garden treasures, we head into the kitchen—
    where our expert chef awaits you.
    With a deep love for healthy, traditional cooking, they’ll guide you through the preparation of a full Tuscan menu:
    a first course, main dish, side, and of course, a homemade dessert.

    Every dish is a tribute to authentic Tuscan flavors—a perfect blend of simplicity and richness, rooted in tradition.

    The menu changes with the seasons, because in Tuscany, we cook in harmony with nature.
    This isn’t just a cooking class—it’s a journey through the true taste of Tuscany.

    After we cook, we gather around the table to enjoy what we’ve prepared, paired with a glass of our organic Chianti wine, made from vineyards that breathe the same Tuscan air you’ll feel around you.
    It’s the perfect way to savor every flavor and complete the magic of the experience.

    This experience is exclusively for our guests, but we can also arrange it for small outside groups upon request.
    It’s usually held on Mondays, but we’re happy to adjust the date based on the chef’s availability—because for us, every detail matters.

    It’s a special moment, designed for those who truly want to experience Tuscany—to taste it, feel it, and slow down to enjoy it.
    It’s a chance to connect, share, and take home something that will stay in your heart… and on your palate.

    Our passion for Tuscan tradition is something we love sharing.
    If you’d like to discover the true flavors of this land with us,
    we’ll be waiting—apron ready.

    As a parting gift, you’ll receive a personalized Le Torri apron—a special souvenir from your culinary adventure,
    and a way to bring a little piece of Tuscany back home with you.

    “Cooking can be a bit of a troublemaker — it can drive you crazy, but it brings so much joy. After all, people who love good food are always the best company.”
