The organic food and respect for Mother Earth was the common denominator of the more than 300 events that took place from May 5th to 8th at the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona. Thousands of children, families and visitors visited the exhibition that reached its XIII edition with more freshness than ever. It reached an influx of 79,000 people visited the exhibition and the Festival of Children's Environmental Mamaterra. 

Public authorities are beginning to open their eyes to the sound production. It is expected that soon brought into action plans with their own budget to support production, distribution and dissemination of organic food, said Angeles Parra, director of Bioculture and secretary of the Association Vida Sana. The brand new minister of Agriculture, and Fisheries of the Government during his visit to Bioculture, committed to providing total care to a sector that, as acknowledged, has been neglected until now. Jordi William satisfied both personal and public by visiting the show was able to verify that the sector is an important fact from the standpoint of economic activity and also in the preservation of the countryside, promoting their social, cultural and economic aspects.

The show has once again shown that culture and development are possible and economically viable if it is done with respect for natural laws. It is possible to produce and consume organic products. The sectors that make up the fair have been growing, getting professional and also becoming increasingly popular.

    So this was the first meeting for the Mamaterra festival, I have visited it and it is wonderful to think that it started as a mere idea and then became of the biggest festival to bring children and teach the importance of the organic production, I hope this activity keeps on going!
