Castelluccio in Monti Sibillini National Park, Italy
The Apennine Mountains cross through the Umbrian region of central Italy, and there, in the high elevation of Monti Sibillini National Park is a tiny village called Castelluccio. The farming community dates back at least to the 13th century, and attracts skiers and hikers. This time of year, the lentil harvest is in full swing. Castelluccio lentils are considered an epicurean treat and can be a little more expensive than the typical bag you buy at the grocery store.
