Harvesting Tomatoes in Italy with Greci
The Greci Tomato Harvest
Greci boasts a longstanding tradition of cultivating some of the most succulent and flavourful tomatoes known worldwide. Nurtured by nutrient-rich soil, and with the help of the Mediterranean climate and careful cultivation practices, Greci Tomatoes are considered by chefs to be an absolute pizza essential.
The magic of nutrient-rich soil
It's often said that the journey of a tomato begins in the soil, and nowhere is this truer than in the Emilia-Romagna region where Greci grows their tomatoes.
Cow manure is an essential part of enriching the soil as a natural fertiliser, providing nutrients to the soil and promoting sustainable farming and supporting the reduction of waste. The nutrient-rich soil acts as a natural reservoir, supplying the tomatoes with a medley of minerals like potassium, calcium, and magnesium. These minerals not only contribute to the tomatoes' robust flavour, shelf-life, beautiful sweetness and juiciness, but also play a crucial role in their nutritional profile.
Sustainable farming practices
The farmers at Greci understand the value of their soil on their tomato crops. This understanding is reflected in their commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly farming practices. By practising crop rotation, using organic matter for soil enrichment, and reducing the use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides, the soil will keep healthy and teeming with life for generations to come.
From the soil to your restaurant
As the tomatoes are nurtured by the nutrient-rich soil, they undergo a transformation that captures the magic of Greci and the Emilia-Romagna region. Once they ripen under the Mediterranean sun, they're handpicked with care to preserve their integrity. From there, they embark on a journey that takes them from the fields to Italian restaurants worldwide.
