Sardinians like to forage for wild asparagus, wild greens, berries and mushrooms. Don't do this yourself without the proper training, otherwise you could run the risk of eating something poisonous.
If you don't have a garden, try allotting a small plot of land for growing the Italian basics: lettuce, tomatoes, basil, parsley and squash. You can also grow these items in pots if you don't have a garden space.
There's nothing like the vibrant flavors of food that is eaten shortly after being harvested.
