The importance of promoting the land and its resources, also because, if you look around, There remains only one!

Ora bacchetto! Calmi, sto scherzando! 😉 Lungi da me usare qualsiasi tipo di bacchetta verso qualcuno! It’ anche vero però, che davanti a certe situazioni, non riesco proprio a non dire la mia! Non è una questione di puntiglio, It is that it is time we all learn to get serious in promoting the land and its resources, also because, if you look around, There remains only one!

Ognuno di noi, in his own way, Can anything be done to our economy, to promote our products, to raise awareness of the richness and beauty of our land. The consumer may very, starting to choose where and how to shop, paying attention to seasonality, label, and provenance. I know it is a time of crisis, but buying less, and more quality, It is good for us and our Italian.

The wheel that turned our economic system, by now, is you are stopping! Right now, are crucial synergies, doing well together! If someone believes, that running alone things can andargli good long, the illusion! Who runs alone, receives about poi, only remains!

Having said, I will make mention of some episodes that made me turn up their noses at my days spent in Crotone. These are situations in which one often encounters in Italy; We are a country rich in resources abroad envy us, but unfortunately we have not yet learned to value them as they deserve.

  • 1′ Case – I love breakfast, It is my favorite meal. A Crotone, land of great productions, in a three star hotel I've stayed, the first morning ready to enjoy what 'I thought' I expected, I found myself in front of really sad packaged products. Almost nothing of the territory, and no trace of fresh fruit; for me that love is a real affront. Offering more fruit, both in hotels and in restaurants, you could do a lot for farmers!
  • 2′ Case – During an afternoon, between one visit and another, I stopped for a drink. Well, since I was a little 'undecided, I asked some advice to the person who had come to take the order (also to hear what he would have offered me). The response was: “He wants a spritz?"But I said no! You should know that it is a Calabrian typical drink non-alcoholic coffee made with spring water of Mount Covello, situated in the territory of Girifalco in the province of Catanzaro. And 'perfect for every hour, these aunt, and taste really nice. E 'on'brasilena”. Why not offer the! Obviously Did I stressed, and I ordered.
  • 3'Case - much I love ice cream, if then matched fruit is a real meal. Well, I could not believe my eyes when one day and ordered a similar, I received a bowl with peaches in syrup! Peaches in syrup in August?! us! Say no more ...
  • 4'Case - Calabria, land of great oils. "But we want to put them on the tables!"I had to say precisely the same words all'addetta the hall who took care of the service. Moreover it would be important not to fill bottles with other oils with known labels, also because, looking at the bottle was, It is easy to see if it happens. Here come into because the famous anti-filler cap, alas rejected. The one is to rely on the seriousness of the restaurateur.

Another thing I'd like to see me bring the restaurant, It is a small bottle of local olive oil, that “I would use during the meal, I would pay the bill at a promotional price, and that would take me home.” Same thing I would like to see applied to the wine you do not end up consuming, given the proper limitations of the Highway Code.

In addition, I would like to see on the tables, as is already the case for wines, of the “oils cards of local olive oil” with informative pills that present briefly the characteristics of the varieties. Here I make a note on the Local Action Group of Crotone, the Gal Kroton, that in a few days will present the paper of olive oils adhering to their local food system.

That said, remembering that in Italy we have over 530 cultivars of olives, much is being done, but much can still be with the commitment of all, with the help of the administrations, and with the right local communication.

Launch my outlet here, but do not think, I do wherever I be given the opportunity. As during the first 'edition of the "Fair of Excellence Strongolesi" organized dall'operosa Pro Loco, and it was followed by a debate coordinated by journalist Giuseppe de Pipita "The Crotonese".

Invited to the table, after the greetings sent via a message from President of Calabria Giuseppe Scopelliti, and the presence of – Vincenzo Pepparelli President of the Chamber of Commerce of Crotone, Christmas Carvelli President Gal Kroton, Mayor Michael Laurenzano Strongoli, Simona Mancuso Municipal Councilor for productive activities and Francesco Fiorita minority leader of Strongoli City Council – I told my, as a blogger communicator of the territory and its producers, on what could be done starting with these small things that I highlighted earlier. As for the aid to producers, it streamlining the bureaucratic part to which they are heavily subjected, and l 'help to support them in the expenses for participation in fairs and promotional events, It would be welcome.

Siamo un paese ricco di risorse che all’estero ci invidiano, quindi forza, sta a tutti noi valorizzarle!
