The products of Bukovina and, implicitly, those of Sadovena have created a reputation over the years both in Romania and abroad. It all starts with pure ingredients from nature. The simpler they are, the tastier the dishes. When it comes to recipes, in Sadova products have their own delicious character and deep-rooted traditions. Sadovans are loyal to their culinary roots and proud of their local traditions.
La Stâna Bucovineană
The story of Stâna Bucovineană began 16 years ago when they invested in the first dairy farm in the area. For 12 years they produced milk as raw material for Dorna Lactate. In 2016, for economic reasons, they decided to switch to processing raw milk into a finished product. In the same year, under the brand "La Stana Bucovineana", they started a partnership. With small but sure steps, relying on quality and perseverance, they have so far managed to make a name for themselves. The brand, La Stâna Bucovineană, is recognized locally, as well as in Iasi, Bucharest and other areas where they have reliable partners for the distribution of products.

Definiția Sadovei este tradiția și cultura străbună. Toate îndeletnicirile pe care strămoșii le-au practicat cu drag sunt continuate de către sadoveni și predate, mai apoi, generațiilor tinere, ritual prcticat de când se știu. Produsele populare reprezintă, încă, o formă de artă și de respect față de trecut pentru oamenii de aici, iar cei mai pricepuți meșteri nu se dau în lături de la a face cunoscut publicului larg frumoasele moșteniri ale Bucovinei.

Carpentry
The craft of woodworking has been widespread in the mountainous area, but few have ventured to learn this ancient art. Mr Dumitru Latiș, a Sadova mountain man, has taken up this craft with love and courage, giving wood new forms and uses. From imposing wooden gates to carefully crafted beam houses, our Sadovean does not shy away from any challenge whose main actor is wood.

Sculptor – Meșter popular
Woodcarving is a well-known art in the Bucovina area, but it is practiced less and less by the locals. Nicolae Coca, however, is one of the craftsmen who carries this craft forward, taking care that it does not remain just a thread of history. From his hands are born spoons, cups, coffee cups, all articles of necessity in the homes of the Sadovans, both in the past and today.

Pânze, Cămăși și Ițari
It's a long way to the proud shirt and the unmistakable yarmulkes worn by the boys of Bucovina. Just like the foundations of a house, these pieces of folk costume also have a basis. Mrs Maria Constantinescu weaves the cloth without which the shirts and ițari would not exist. This key element of traditional clothing is then embellished with folkloric elements that give the costume its uniqueness. In short "Finis origine pendet."
