Description of our way of agriturism - 'agrotourism' or hospitality for tourists in an agricultural context

The farm and its products

The Castle of Montalto is in the center of an estate of 270 hectares, about 650 acres. While two thirds are woodlands, the rest is planted, partly in annual crops - wheat, sunflowers, alfalfa and others, depending on the year - and partly in olive groves. There is also a vegetable garden and a chicken coop, and a bee keeper sets out his hives on our land.

The farm is certified organic. No pesticides, chemical fertilizers or weed killers are used.

Tenants of the houses at the castle can buy our extra-virgin olive oil, honey, eggs and garden vegetables in season, at cost.

Also available at a discount are good wines produced at a winery belonging to relatives of the owners, in the Chianti Rufina area near Florence.

In addition to these agricultural products, we often have ceramic and porcelain objects for sale, hand-decorated by local artists.
