Weekly Markets in Valdichiana Senese

Short guide to the weekly markets in the nine municipalities of Valdichiana Senese

When it comes to cooking, the choice of products makes the difference. It surely does.

The quality and origin of the food you choose for your dishes is a key element, especially if you are going to prepare high-quality and, at the same time, healthy food. The ideal would be to have a vegetable garden of one’s own, to be used to cultivate seasonal products, and, why not, also as a space to breed barnyard animals.

However, not everyone has such opportunity, not even in Valdichiana Senese.

That is why knowing where and when there are weekly markets in the area could be helpful. In every municipality, every week, there is a market where you can buy rigorously first-rate products.

That of the weekly markets is definitely an experience not to be missed, neither for locals, nor for foreigners. In addition to the products, each market is characterized by the popular atmosphere that, for the most part, has always distinguished Tuscany and its villages.
