San Miniato has a long truffle tradition. Family names have passed on their names as truffle dealer over a century. Starting from 1969 a Market Expo takes place in the last three weekends of November to celebrate the precious fungus. The town has gained its notoriety thanks to the highly price White Truffle which has driven the local economy of San Miniato. As our mission is that to promote the local products 365 days a year, the San Miniato Promozione Foundation has started a new project named: Truffle all year round. When the winter season ends there are two other Truffle that enrich the local economy as well as the restaurant dishes: the spring truffle Marzuolo and the Summer Black Truffle.

This project is a great result of the collaboration between the local administration, associations and all stakeholders (truffle hunters, truffle merchants, winemakers, restaurateurs and others). Our DNA there is promotion, not only of the truffle, but also of the economy, tourism, and all those initiatives that can entice people to visit San Miniato and appreciate its architectural beauty and food and wine excellence.
