BioCultura Fair 2011 en Madrid
BioCultura Fair will be held soon in the Spanish capital, which celebrates its twenty-seventh edition this year. The event is organized by IFEMA and BioCultura. As always, the goal will be to promote a healthier lifestyle and ecologically responsible consumption. In addition, the principal, Angeles Parra, is also in charge of organizing an event aimed at the youngest: MamaTerra. It will promote the same values as BioCultura, but adapted to the tastes of children.

Food and Nutrition in public service
Over the event, there will be a series of tastings of organic products, as well as cooking classes and explanations about the benefits of consumption of natural elements. This is what the organizers (Biocultura, CMEA, Intereco) call 'Show cooking': known nutritionists and chefs cook various dishes with elements from Agroecology. Thus, the public can access various ecological recipes, while learning more about smart and healthy nutrition. Producers will also participate explaining the origin of their products and their preparation.
