Torna la splendida e fiorita Festa della Lavanda, manifestazione organizzata dal Lavandeto di Castelnuovo di Assisi nei fine settimana tra Giugno e Luglio 2018.

Le date previste per questa 9° Edizione sono: 23 e 24 Giugno, 30 Giugno e 1° Luglio, 7 e 8 Luglio.

La Festa della Lavanda rappresenta un’occasione unica per trascorrere un weekend ad Assisi, immersi nella natura e nella spiritualità che solo questa luogo speciale riesce a trasmettere. 

Tra giugno e luglio, con la bellissima Assisi stagliata sullo sfondo, si potranno ammirare i campi dell’incantevole Lavandeto di Castelnuovo, coltivati con varie varietà di lavanda: filari viola, bianchi, blu, lilla, rosa… Uno spettacolo di colori e sfumature molto particolare che sembra quasi catapultarci nel sud della Francia, in quella Provenza da sempre associata ai grandi campi di filari violetti.

Profumi e colori di Provenza al Lavandeto di Assisi

Nei tre weekend della festa, potrete sostare nei campi per osservare e fotografare la fioritura e i suoi cambiamenti. L’ingresso è libero, e saranno organizzate quattro visite guidate gratuite per ciascun giorno di festa (indicativamente, due al mattino alle 10:30 e alle 11:30, più due nel pomeriggio alle 17:00 e alle 18:30).

Fotografi professionisti e non, potranno partecipare al concorso fotografico organizzato in collaborazione con il circolo Cine Fotoamatori Hispellum: oltre alla vincita del contest per la foto migliore, le più belle saranno utilizzate per realizzare il “Calendario 2018 del Lavandeto”.

Per i più curiosi, sarà possibile assistere alla distillazione della lavanda e scoprire come avviene l’estrazione dell’olio essenziale da essa ricavato. Si tratta di un prodotto dalle numerose proprietà benefiche, dall’azione riequilibratrice del sistema nervoso (calma l’ansia e il nervosismo, allevia il mal di testa e i disturbi causati dallo stress, aiuta a prendere sonno in caso di insonnia) all’utilizzo nel trattamento dei sintomi di raffreddore, tosse o influenza. Inoltre, sono previsti laboratori per realizzare unguenti, di preparazione di tisane, di coltivazione delle rose.

Sarà poi allestita una mostra di floravivaismo specialmente dedicata agli amanti del giardinaggio, con espositori di piante più o meno rare. Non mancherà un piccolo mercatino di prodotti alla lavanda e artigiani di qualità.

Grande novità di quest’anno sarà l’area dedicata alle cerimonie a tema lavanda: troverete bomboniere artigianali personalizzate e profumate, composizioni con fiori essiccati e addobbi adatti ad ogni periodo dell’anno, allestimento con piante vive ideali anche per addobbi fai da te e molto altro, per assecondare i gusti più diversi e soprattutto quelli dei futuri sposi!
