Dikotylon, Feneos, Peloponnese
Dikotylon pulses are grown in Feneos, a mountain valley nestled between the peaks of Helmos and Zyria in the north Peloponnese. The rich and fertile land in the valley adds its own flavour to the pulses, which are grown by local small-scale farmers who, farming sustainably, have developed their skills of cultivation from generation to generation. Growers cultivate unique strains that provide the best in terms of both quality and taste.
