Farro della Garfagnana
Food · PGI · 15 municipalities
Unlike other Italian grains, Farro della Garfagnana IGP, recognized since 1996, is legally restricted to a micro-zone of just fifteen municipalities in Tuscany, including Camporgiano and Careggine. Today, exactly thirty-nine verified producers cultivate this specific crop under the direct oversight of the Consorzio per la Tutela del Farro della Garfagnana IGP. This exceptionally small group of registered farmers and the tight municipal limit distinguish this Tuscan spelt from broader, neighboring cereal varieties, ensuring that every single grain originates exclusively from within these fifteen designated local territories and remains entirely, traceably bound to this specific northern Tuscan origin.
