FARM

Since for us “a true farmhouse cannot but have an important agricultural and zootechnical company behind it.”

The terrain
As evidence of this, the vast expanse of land surrounding Scalelle Farmhouse is dedicated for the cultivation of organic food products, rich in organoleptic properties, that will arrive directly on the tables of our guests.
The crops
Wheat, barley, oats, and various vegetables are just some of our renowned crops, for which we have boasted the prestigious BIOAGRICERT certification for more than 15 years, destined exclusively for the best Organic Companies.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Furthermore our extra virgin olive oil plays an important role, obtained strictly from cold pressing and hand-picked olives, in order to always obtain a highquality oil. Currently, there are more than 1500 olive trees on the farm, divided among various cultivars: Ogliarola, Leccino, and Cellina di Nardò.
