Medicinal herbs in Alta Langa

Sale San Giovanni, with its crops, is Piedmont’s second largest hub for medicinal herb production.

Aromatic cultivation has enabled the creation of new jobs and made the country known in Italy, France, Germany Switzerland and the Netherlands.

It is a little Provence, a corner of the upper Langa that gives thousands of visitors a kaleidoscope of colors every year: sugar paper, sage green, écru.

Over all the deep blue of lavender.

Expanses as far as the eye can see of hyssop, chamomile, yarrow, sage, coriander, and fennel bloom here every year.
