13TH FESS: FEAST OF FIG AND FIG CAKE – 15/09/2018
The Feast of fig and fig cake is a manifestation that has the fig in its center. The culture that has long been successful in this area and which has enriched the tables of our ancestors, has been a little bit forgotten and extruded in recent times. Visitors can see, taste and buy fig products, and get acquainted with many possibilities of using figs, and all of that is represented by producers of fig products, who are year by year more numerous. This event brings new contents every year, such as lectures, promotions and exhibitions related to the fig, and therefore gives visitors not only gastronomic experiences, but also raising awareness of the importance of this traditional Mediterranean culture. In addition to fig products, visitors can also try other local products and view Istrian souvenirs.
