The Department of Climate Action, Food and Rural Agenda, through Prodeca, is promoting company participation in Fira Orígens from 19 to 20 November 2022.

WHAT IS FIRA ORÍGENS?

Orígens is a food and wine event in which producers and quality agri-food products take centre stage. 

After 9 years, Fira Orígens remains a benchmark event with great success among visitors and producers alike. In 2022 it reaches its 10th edition, held on 19 and 20 November. Trust, quality and proximity are just some of the values that define it. A space committed to organic production that also promotes direct contact between producers and a gourmet and trade audience who see Orígens as the ideal place to discover new offerings without intermediaries.

At Orígens visitors can learn at the live cooking sessions led by renowned chefs, taste the best local produce on offer from exhibitors, and buy directly from the producer.
