Truffles grow spontaneously in areas where the appropriate climate, plant and ground conditions are met.

Centuries ago man knew how to train dogs and pigs to find the prized fungus by harnessing their heightened sense of smell.

Nowadays thanks to the process known as mycorrhization, it’s possible to inoculate the fungus spores found in the tree hosts, a process which given time and with the appropriate care will instigate truffle production at the tree’s roots; from there on it’s up to nature to bear fruit.
