The garden is cultivated with seasonal vegetables and fruit in particular there are prickly pears mediterranean area, a fig tree, a large chestnut tree, and various vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, beans, broccoli and various types of vegetables grown according to the season. From the garden you can access a small lava stone tower located high up and specially designed to admire the view in solitude or in sweet company.
The Catena hamlet tells a story. The town of Linguaglossa was also threatened by the eruption of Etna in 1923, to the point that the citizens of Linguaglossa carried the stick of the patron saint "SANT'EGIDIO" to the hamlet of Catena and a few meters from where they rested this stick they obtained the miracle to stop the lava and so the country escaped destruction.
