A friendly welcome and an unexpected visit

It is firstly around local specialties (tome pie and squares of Vic) that the commission was welcomed. The partners and elected officials of the commission then gathered around the table where the deputies presented the broad outlines of the municipality's projects, while reaffirming their commitment and determination to obtain the label.
