In the heart of Rome, between the Roman Forums and the Bocca della Verità, stands The Campagna Amica market at the Circus Maximus, 74 Via di San Teodoro: a meeting point between producer and consumer. There are more than 60 farms with zero-mile, guaranteed, safe and quality products for direct sale, grown or raised directly by the same producers behind the stalls. Inside are the “Campagna Amica Seals,” products saved from extinction thanks to the work of farmers such as the Atina cannellini bean, Pontecorvo bell pepper, Onano lentil and Columella Caciofiore. In the market there is a wide selection of fruits and vegetables, cheeses, dairy products, oil, fish, bread and baked goods, cereals, flours and pasta, fresh fruit, legumes, oil, fresh meat, cured meats, honey, preserves, fresh milk, plants and flowers, and much more. Every Saturday and Sunday the Peasant Chefs offer new dishes cooked according to tradition. You can eat in the outdoor courtyard where food trucks prepare typical street food: fried fish, vegetable soups, porchetta sandwiches and barbecued meat. In addition, the Campagna Amica market offers activities dedicated to adults and children, with educational workshops, show cooking, tastings and exhibitions of typical foods. There is no shortage of charitable initiatives such as the Spesa Sospesa, a help for all people with economic difficulties.
All year long open
