The peasant origins have determined two of the greatest fortunes of our sister lives: the first, the intimate and sensitive relationship with the land and the creatures that never cease to offer an incomplete, indistinct definition of it.
The second is Putàna, the only cake offered by our grandmother that we have memory of.

In occasion of Tra Campagna e Città, La sovranità alimentare nei movimenti contadini, curated by Comunità Vicentina per l’Agroecologia and Lies, ife collective in collaboration with Di Sana Pianta presents PU-TÀ-NA, a collective cooking practice through which to reflect on rural imaginaries and rights related to food and the land.

Guests of the kitchen at Caracol Olol Jackson, together with the group from Meeting Gardens Alternative Program, prepared Putàna, a traditional peasant dessert from the Veneto region, made with ingredients that were available and offered by the land. In this version, waste products were repurposed, and local ingredients were carefully selected, with attention to the enhancement and protection of the territory and all the beings that inhabit it.
