Who we are

About the farm

Five km north of Otranto, near the Baia dei Turchi, we farm a family estate of about 20 hectares with arable land, vegetable garden, orchard, olive grove and woodland, following organic and biodynamic principles. We produce native grains (Senatore Cappelli and Russello durum wheat, emmer, barley) and pulses (grass pea, chickpeas, beans), vegetables, fruit, extra virgin olive oil from more than a thousand olive trees, wildflower honey and tomato passata, and our grain is also made into pasta. Our agriturismo offers rooms and a farm campsite, and you can buy our vegetables and fruit right on the farm.
