The white truffle is a prestigious product, for the colour, the delicious taste and the intense smell that enrich the plates with which it is garnished. The best quality is collected in the autumn time in the woods of Langhe Monferrato Roero of Piedmont. San Damiano celebrates the truffle the first Sunday of November. In October, November and December it will be possible to book a simulated truffle search accompanied by real truffle hunters and their bloodhounds.

Where to buy them
The product can be purchased at the stands present at the National Truffle Fair which takes place in November, or by contacting the Sandamianesi Truffle Association.
The capon- in the past times bred in almost all of the farms of Piedmont- is a male chicken that is castrated to increase weight and softness of the meat. The breeding of this animal is done in compliance with the European legislation which provide for a period of breeding not less than 140 days, castration at 70 days from slaughter and the prevalent nourishment of cereals. The capon of San Damiano has been recognised by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry as one of the traditional Italian agri-food products. Capon is a product enjoyed during Christmas. In San Damiano is celebrated, the second Sunday of December, during the "historic fair of capon", when it is served on the square of the Municipality the tasty broth resulting from cooking.
The Capon can be purchased at the farms belonging to the Association for the Protection of the Capon of San Damiano whose farming methods follow a strict specification, making the product unique and unparalleled.
