Precious white truffles are available on the market of San Miniato. Mostra Mercato Nazionale del Tartufo Bianco di San Miniato – Since 1969, this truffle market takes place over three weekends in November each year. There are white truffles (Tuber magnatum Pico) from the area around San Miniato and offered other gastronomic products. A good time to be at Guarda Mare. Other highlights at this time are in the category of November. There is a very good truffle Guide (Italian).
Also in San Giovanni d’Asso (Crete Senese) is held on the second and third weekend in November a truffle market: Mostra Mercato del Tartufo Bianco delle Crete Senese. If you cannot attend both markets, we recommend the market in San Miniato. He has more diversety.
