"And we turn, watch, take care of the heritage of our land, because if we will take care of us our land, who will never do in our stead, and who will never care for us that we are ignoring our own things? "
"Loris Jacopo Bonomi"
The non-profit cultural association "free taste" is born from the idea expressed highly significant in this quotation. Our land, Sicily, rich in resources and culture, needs a better understanding to be extended to all. The cultural heritage includes food and wine traditions of which offer products and techniques sung poems of 2400 years old.
When we speak of "gastronomy" does not refer exclusively to food or drink, but as we all know the term covers: history, art, science and social practices.
The main goals that the Association aims to achieve are the ones to disseminate and broaden the understanding of food and wine culture in all its fullness, especially with regard to food and nutrition, through literature, reports on seminars and conferences. Among our goals within the establishment of a specialized library and the organization of services for social solidarity. We also propose as a meeting place to gather and address of those who wish to undertake studies in the field (secondary school diploma second degree, universities, professional courses and advanced courses outside the school). Organize historical-geographical by the provision of food and agricultural products Traditional (PAT) of the territory. Making the Mediterranean diet, promoted by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage of humanity and value as a food and wine culture forward professional, social and art in education.
Sicily Verga, Pirandello and Sciacca turns and looks to the future, but we're convinced that the latter, to have a solid foundation and better, must necessarily have recourse to the past.
