Hopping barefoot in vats full of grapes to make wine, the oldest and noblest tradition loved by adults and children alike. Three weekends with "Special Harvest“, the new event of “But where do cartoons live?" on the way Saturday September 11, which will continue until 26 of the month in the extraordinary Vivinatura Oasis di Lagosele in Eboli.
An event within the event, the special harvest is in fact included in the contest “Weird” already active since May and which will continue until October with ever new and engaging surprises.
For the next three Saturdays and Sundays, therefore, in the natural oasis on the lake, with its splendid examples of flora and fauna, during the still mild days of September you will be able to try the exciting adventure of pressing grapes.
There will be a dedicated space with vats, grapes galore and entire families, equipped only with comfortable clothes and the desire to have fun in the open air without the fear of getting dirty, will be able to work together in the enterprise of succeeding in a DoC harvest.
But in addition to being a reason to meet and have fun, the grape harvest has an educational value for children because it brings them closer to nature and the land that has always, since ancient times, been the main source of wealth for man both to sustain himself and to find himself.

There have also been proposals to the attention of the Miur to include the grape harvest in school curricula for its great educational significance. In fact, the little vignerons, in addition to having fun, learn values and terminology related to the land, learn to distinguish the stalk from the grapes and develop various sensory faculties.
A way to also promote social inclusion, especially in schools, where these manual experiences inevitably unite despite all diversity. The mission, therefore, is also pedagogical like the Montessori lesson. "The forest is alive, live the forest” is, in fact, the slogan of Strambosco which is an escapist and educational tour inside the naturalistic oasis.
Not just play, but the discovery of values such as respect for the environment, the protection and safeguarding of species at risk of extinction, the relationship of psycho-physical well-being that can be achieved through contact with nature.
Taking part in Strambosco, and now also in the grape harvest weekends, is a unique and rare experience. Visitors, young and old, once they have crossed the threshold of the Oasis will receive a kit (which they can then take home) that is what they need to live the adventure, a secret mission in which their guides will be the Rangers.
