FICO is a training ground for a sensorial and educational experience about food and its biodiversity.

We want to re-create a bridge between the new generations and food through a real and complete experience by recovering the direct and physical contact with what we eat and our agricultural world.

FICO Eataly World is the only place in the world where to experience the whole food production chains. We learn with our heart, our mind, and our hands. Where does bread come from? When and how do you plant seeds? What do chickens eat? How do animals live and communicate? What do they produce?
