About us

The province of Verona is living proof of an approach to agriculture that has succeeded in arriving at an ideal balance between technology and tradition and between love for one's own land and openness towards new horizons.

This balance has led to a wealth of typical agricultural products, with a heritage to be safeguarded, promoted and improved. With this scope the collective trademark "Gli orti di Giulietta", promoted by the Consorzio di Tutela Ortofrutta in Verona, has been adopted since 1992.

The trademark is associated with the image of a poetic figure, known and loved all over the world, recalling the area along with its landscape, history, culture and traditions.

O.P. Nordest is a producers' organisation bringing together individual farmers and fruit and vegetable cooperatives, distributed throughout provinces in the North-East of Italy.

It coordinates, safeguards, exploits and promotes typical fruit and vegetable products of guaranteed origin, ensuring the quality of products and processes.

It deals mainly with apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, melons, radicchio, vegetables, strawberries, cherries and kiwis, with an overall range that involves significant quantities, produced with all the personal care and attention of the individual member farmers.
