Who we are
About the farm
In Terrasini (Palermo) we, the brothers Benedetto and Rosolino Palazzolo, run the farm our father founded in the 1970s, which has been farmed organically since 1994. In 11,000 m² of greenhouses we grow Sicilian tropical fruit – papaya, mango, passion fruit and bananas – and on 4 hectares of open field, 2 of them citrus groves, seasonal vegetables and fruit. On the farm we offer self-service shopping: you can pick the produce yourself straight from the garden, every day from 9 am to 1 pm; we also sell at markets in Palermo and Isola delle Femmine and deliver to your home.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
