OUR STRENGTHS:
- Cultivation without the use of any chemical or medicinal products, even those allowed by organic regulations.
- Harvesting and processing in the same day: we do not have refrigerators, so everything cultivated during the day has to be pasteurized in the evening .
- Simple–but tasty–recipes: largely Tuscan, sometimes improvised upon with our evolving knowledge.
