About Farmer's Festival
The festival of the farming world
In Plodio, a small municipality in the Bormida Valley in the province of Savona, the Farmer's Festival is the quintessential summer event. Organized by the Pro Loco of Plodio, the event has celebrated the agricultural and peasant tradition of the area for decades, attracting visitors from all over the valley.
