SYRACUSE, Italy, Sept. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The second leg of the LemON Tour, organized by the Syracuse Lemon PGI Consortium, will be held during EXPO Divination in Syracuse, Sept. 21-29, in conjunction with the G7 Agricoltura, scheduled for Sept. 26 and 27.

The Lemon Truck will be positioned in one of the most prestigious locations of the event, inside the courtyard in front of the Maniace Castle, a symbol of the city of Syracuse. Here, visitors will be able to discover the values behind the LemON Tour project, thanks in part to the information materials distributed and dedicated staff. The exhibition will focus on crucial issues, such as the sustainability of agricultural production and the fight against climate change, through virtuous practices such as improving soil fertility, using renewable energy and saving water, and protecting pollinating insects.

During the event, the audience of tourists and industry professionals will be able to learn more about the concept of “No-Waste”: the Syracuse Lemon PGI, in fact, thanks to its production specification, is a product that can be used entirely, including the peel. This anti-waste approach will be the leitmotif of the activities offered by the LemON Truck, where it will be possible to taste sorbets, granitas and lemonades made with Limone di Siracusa IGP.

This choice is not random: the event represents a unique opportunity to turn our gaze toward Europe and the future, highlighting the strong link between nature and tradition that characterizes the Syracuse Lemon PGI. The participation of the LemON Tour is part of a framework of events dedicated to sustainability and the protection of certified products, central themes of the global debate to be held during the G7 Agriculture. The Consortium is committed to promoting the defense of the identity and authenticity of the Syracuse Lemon PGI, in synergy with the guidelines of the European project that embraces sustainability and the protection of natural resources. This stage will also be an opportunity for discussion with other consortia and international organizations, fostering the creation of shared strategies for the protection of protected geographical indications (PGIs) and to promote sustainable agricultural production.
