And this fair walks in the same line of initiatives that already have consolidated as is the case of the Fira de la Tomata de Penjar or the inclusion of five products of their people in Castelló Ruta de Sabor. From the Provincial Council we recognize that effort and we help them for the second consecutive year with this initiative that aims to consolidate this line of development of gastronomic tourism product to continue generating tourism activity outside the summer season”.
