The first Slow Food Earth Market in the Aosta Valley
The Cogne Earth Market is the first Slow Food Earth Market in the Aosta Valley. It is held in Cogne, in the province of Aosta, at an altitude of 1,600 meters, in the main center of the Gran Paradiso National Park. Once a month, in Piazza Cavalieri di Vittorio Veneto, about twenty small producers, mainly from the Aosta Valley, gather.
The market follows the Slow Food philosophy: fresh, seasonal products from sustainable agriculture. Alpine cheeses, vegetables, honey, preserves, and other local specialties showcase mountain agriculture and the biodiversity of the Alps. The event is organized by the Slow Food Aosta Valley Convivium, the food community "La Terra che Ride per l'agroecologia", the Cogne Municipal Administration, and the Cogne Valley Tourist Operators Consortium.
The square hosting the market was historically the site of the town's weekly market. With the Earth Market, Cogne has renewed its vocation, transforming it into a meeting place between producers and consumers, where one can buy good, clean, and fair food and get to know those who grow it.
For 2026, the Cogne Earth Market is scheduled for several dates spread between June and September, in Piazza Cavalieri di Vittorio Veneto, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Each edition brings together about twenty small producers from the Aosta Valley with fresh, seasonal products from sustainable agriculture.
The Cogne Earth Market is held once a month, in Piazza Cavalieri di Vittorio Veneto, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The planned dates for the 2026 season include: June 27, July 4, July 18, August 1, August 15, August 29, and September 12.
The schedule may be subject to updates: confirmed dates on the Slow Food website and on the channels of the Cogne Valley Tourist Operators Consortium.
Cogne is about 27 km from Aosta along the SR47. The market square is easily accessible on foot from public parking lots, about 200 meters from the bus terminal.
The market is held once a month from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Calendar of dates on the Slow Food website. Info: Giorgio Elter, +39 335 6055362.
