You are invited to join the many visitors to the 10th day of strawberries and asparagus

Welcome lovers of locally produced food and lovers of local cuisine. On Sunday, May 27, from 10 a.m., you are invited to central Slovenia in Breg pri Litija, where you can enjoy the fresh air and unspoiled nature. It is only a 40-minute drive from Ljubljana. If you like strawberries and asparagus grown by local Slovenian producers, we are the right address for you.

A wide range of delicacies made from fresh strawberries and asparagus, grilled dishes and handicrafts are an excellent choice for a Sunday trip, as well as lunch.

The month of May has arrived and with it also beautiful sunny weather. On May 27, from 10:00 a.m., it will smell of various asparagus and strawberry dishes. Visiting our event saves you the time you would spend cooking Sunday lunch. This time, in addition to already known dishes, such as asparagus frtajla, risotto and pasta, the members of the Society for Rural Development will prepare slightly more unknown asparagus dishes, such as pies, roasted new potatoes and toast. The main ingredient of all of them is, of course, locally produced asparagus. For all visitors who are always tempted by good pastries and desserts, we will prepare various strawberry desserts, pancakes and, of course, strawberry ice cream.

If the offer of asparagus and strawberry desserts will not fill you up yet, you will also be able to serve yourself dishes from the grill. Locally grown asparagus and strawberries will be available at the stalls where you can buy them.

In the Society for Rural Development Laz, we promise an interesting program for all generations. We will do our best to ensure that all visitors to the culinary event are satisfied.

Strawberry and Asparagus Day is becoming a traditional event, as people like to go to culinary events that have a rich cultural program. Every year, the Society for Rural Development Laz strives to find something new and interesting for every visitor.

As every year, visitors will be able to see a wide range of craftsmen at the stands. With the help of animators, the youngest will immerse themselves in playing and creating.

But if your heels itch, you will be able to spin to the rhythm of the music of the duo Lithuanian echo.

In Slovenia, we have an indigenous breed of Carniolan grey bee, which is why the neighboring homestead Paternoster has prepared a tour of the life of bees on this day. Visitors will be able to see the Slovenian apiary, the life of the autochthonous Slovenian breed of bee breed of the Carniola lavender, try honey massage, as well as API therapy. The home is known for its milk processing, so visitors will be able to taste their cheeses and other dairy products. The specialty of their offer is sleeping in the hayloft and in the kaižas.

The rest of the homestead’s offer includes receptions of various tourist groups, birthday parties, children’s camps, a camp and a rest area for motorhomes.
