Its name recalls the Val Taro, an area of the Parma Apennines renowned for its forests and its long-standing tradition connected with mushrooms, particularly porcini.
From Nature to Food Processing
The company processes a variety of products intended for the food market.
Mushrooms, vegetables, fruit and berries are prepared and preserved using methods that make these seasonal ingredients available throughout the year.
The range includes frozen porcini mushrooms as well as selections of frozen berries such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and redcurrants.
A Special Connection with Mushrooms
Mushrooms are one of the most distinctive elements of the company's identity.
Porcini mushrooms have deep roots in the gastronomic culture of the Parma Apennines and especially the Val Taro, where forests and local traditions have created a strong connection between this ingredient and the territory.
