A child sitting on the shore of a lake tells of the process of creating the famous Ricola sweets: the farms, the farmers, the sustainable use of the land and the importance of crop rotation, the cultivation of the 13 herbs in the high altitude meadows… The process from the herbs to the final product is a long one. But the story of this sweet always starts in the fields among the Swiss mountains, in the Valais Canton, Emmental, Val Poschiavo, Giura or Central Switzerland, where more than 100 farms grow the 13 herbs that make up the essence of all the Ricola products. A simple way to steal a kiss… the secret is the Chrüterchraft!

The sixth edition of Corto e Fieno celebrates its new main sponsor, Ricola, a company that shares the spirit and the aims of the Festival and which has long been committed to creating a product in complete harmony with nature.
