  Description

  We re a family living in a farm, in Tuscany countryside. We welcome volunteers who want to make a country experience, and who want to help us taking care of our baby Aimara.
  We are a small farm that has recently moved its business to Mugello. We have a chestnut wood, we have been growing saffron for almost 10 years and we breed Senese cinte pigs n the wild according to tradition. Paolo, the owner of the farm, is a pork butcher and process the meat of the farm to transform it into delicious cured meats. We vinify the grapes of an old Sangiovese vineyard with the imminent project to increase the surface area of the vineyards. For self-consumption we also breed farmyard animals and a small flock of sheep. We do not follow any biological, permaculture or biodynamic protocol, while we use to grow our products as if, each of it should feed our children with the total absence of chemicals.
  
  We are in the municipality of Vicchio, the birthplace of Giotto and Beato Angelico but only 3 km from Dicomano, on the slopes of Monte Giovi in a natural terrace overlooking the Apennine ridge.
