This menu is best served cold; everything can be made up to two days before serving and stored in the fridge until picnic time.

Transport your dishes (and keep everything nice and cold) to your favorite picnic spot in the thermal-insulated carybag from reisenthel.

Serve your Lambrusco in these elegant and fun reusable plastic flutes from govino: they're lightweight, BPA-free, shatterproof, and recyclable.

Disposable palm leaf plates from Marx Foods are an eco-friendly alternative to plastic or paper, and they look great.
