The history of Azienda Agricola Fagone, Agriculture of Excellence. It all began back in the '80s, when Salvatore Noto, a young and determined sixteen-year-old, began to develop a passion for the cultivation of an extraordinary vegetable: Giarratana Onion. After a few years of sacrifices and hard work, thanks to his savings, he managed to buy the first van with which he began to sell and promote the onion in nearby towns. He was not yet aware that this would lay the foundation for the FAGONE company. Over time, Giarratana Onion began to be increasingly sought after in the market, so in 2006 Salvatore decided to start processing Giarratana Onion, creating the first line of preserves and passing on the same passion to his children. From then on, thanks to the father's experience and the creativity of the children, the company began to expand and make its products known at a national level!
