Olot, in La Garrotxa, celebrates this weekend the 11th edition of the Fira Orígens with tastings and workshops for everyone. Many people have visited this event, which is already renowned. And we have also been present in The Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia.

According to the organization, “Orígens has established itself as the essential fair for producers throughout the territory and a must-visit for the professional and gourmet public.”

It is an event that “is characterized by having artisan producers and that was a pioneer in making a firm commitment to organic productions.”

At the fair you can learn during live cooking sessions offered by renowned chefs. You can also try the best local products offered by the exhibitors. And you can buy products directly from the producer.

Organic vegetables, gluten-free pasta or the so-called superfoods are some of the most trendy novelties that are present at the fair.

26% of the space at this year’s fair is occupied by producers who are making their debut at this event. Green cuisine is a trend in the world and is the central theme of the Fira Orígens 2023. Vegetables have become protagonists in the kitchen. They have gone from having a secondary role to often being its main ingredient.
