⑤The Italian word “BIO RURALE” literally translates to “organic farming in the countryside”.The land where the union is located is located in a mid-mountainous area at an altitude of 500 meters, which is truly rural.
⑥The familiar logo mark, which resembles the letter Q in the alphabet of "GIROLOMONI", was created with the motif of the monastery of Montebello, the symbol of the union, viewed from above.The Monastery of Montebello (meaning beautiful mountain) had fallen into ruins, but in 1971 Gino Girolomoni restored it with his friends to create a place where people could gather to revitalize his village of Isola del Piano, his hometown. In the beginning, Gino himself lived there and built it into a farmer's culture museum, meeting place, agriturismo (accommodation facility), and now it is a place where more than 1 people visit every year.

② Below that, there is a recycling mark for the bag's material "paper" and a mark for "use of 100% renewable energy".This is an association that aims to reduce the environmental burden by using the solar panels and small wind power generators installed on the roof of the factory to supply the electricity used in the pasta factory, and to make up for the shortfall with green electricity. This is our obsession.
