The "Strata a foglia" market is primarily a fruit and vegetable market, and its dialect name comes from a tax imposed in the 1500s on “leafy” produce - that is, on all the vegetables sold directly by gardeners and gatherers of wild herbs.
The market takes place daily and is held outdoors along Via Berengario Gaetani, which runs parallel to the main street, Corso Vittorio Emanuele. It is a feast for the senses, rich in colors, sounds, voices, and scents.
The goods are displayed on stalls that are set up and taken down each morning, offering typical products from the local area.
