Perchè l'8 Marzo si festeggia la donna?

Why is women celebrated on March 8?

Women's Day, also known as International Women's Day, is celebrated on March 8 every year in many countries around the world. This holiday was established to commemorate women's struggle for civil, political and economic rights. On March 8, 1908, a group of women textile workers in New York City organized a rally demanding better working conditions and the right to vote. Since then, the date has become a symbol of the struggle for women's rights.


Today, Women's Day is celebrated in many countries with rallies, marches, cultural and political events. The aim is to raise awareness of gender inequalities and violence against women, as well as celebrate the progress achieved by women over the years.


In Italy, since the 1940s, the mimosa flower has become the symbol of March 8, and it is customary to give it away on this occasion. It seems to have been chosen because it is a plant that blooms in winter, when all the rest of nature seems to be still in hibernation. The bright yellow flower is also considered a sign of female solidarity, symbolizing the union between women in the fight for their rights and gender equality. Its flowering therefore represents hope and rebirth, symbolized by the spirit of the March 8 celebration.


Women's Day is not only an occasion to celebrate, but also to reflect on the progress that has been made and the work that still needs to be done to ensure gender equality. It is an opportunity for all women to unite and fight for their rights, but also to raise awareness of men on gender issues.


And on this day we want to remember the union that exists between women and balsamic vinegar, a combination of history, tradition, elegance and well-being.



  • History: Balsamic vinegar has an ancient and interesting history. It was already produced by the Romans and the oldest documents date back to 1046. Women have played an important role in the production of balsamic vinegar, passing their knowledge from generation to generation. The tradition is still very much alive today, and the production of balsamic vinegar is often described as an art.

    • Health: Balsamic vinegar is known to have some health benefits, such as the ability to lower blood sugar and improve digestion. Women are often associated with health and well-being, as they often take care of themselves and the people they love.

    • Fashion: Balsamic vinegar is a widely used ingredient in some of the most famous regions of Italy, such as Emilia Romagna and the province of Modena. This region is also famous for being home to some of the most famous Italian fashion houses, such as Gucci, Prada and Armani. Therefore, women and balsamic vinegar represent fashion and elegance.
