About Festival of Flowers

For over forty years, every spring, Santa Giustina in Colle celebrates the awakening of nature with the Festival of Flowers and Agriculture. The town center, in the Alta Padovana, fills with plants, flowers, and horticultural stalls, with artisans showcasing ancient crafts such as basket weaving, carpentry, and embroidery, workshops for children, a barbecue, and lots of live music. A community festival organized by the Pro Loco that celebrates the agricultural tradition of the area.

The spring of flowers in Santa Giustina in Colle

The Festival of Flowers and Agriculture is one of the most beloved events in Santa Giustina in Colle (province of Padua), in the heart of the Alta Padovana. Organized by the Pro Loco, the event attracts a crowd of gardening and rural tradition enthusiasts every year, who flock to the town center in search of plants, flowers, and ideas for their gardens.

Floral and horticultural market

The heart of the festival is the large floral and horticultural market, with exhibitors of plants, flowers, and shrubs. Alongside the stalls, artisans bring ancient crafts to life: basket weavers working with wicker, carpenters, spinners, embroiderers, and crochet masters, in homage to the manual skills of the peasant civilization.

Workshops, barbecue, and music

The event features workshops for children outdoors, moments of conviviality with the barbecue, and evenings of live music. The festival thus combines the agricultural and artisanal dimension with recreation, in a village fair atmosphere that involves all generations.

A tradition of the Alta Padovana

With its decades of history, the Festival of Flowers and Agriculture has become a classic spring event in the province of Padua, capable of enhancing the agricultural vocation of the territory and strengthening the community ties of Santa Giustina in Colle.
