Nonno Andrea – Biodiversity Farm

We live and work in the fertile and prosperous Treviso plains, situated among the Montello rolling hills and the mighty, stony river Piave.

Since we were children we had the luck to live tucked away in the wonderful world of nature among vineyards, orchards, cows and hens: at that time we already started to think to keep living here. The possibility of working everyday tucked away into nature, sharing and respecting its ancient and immutable rhythm, being its allies and friends was the life that we dreamt about.

For this reason, 25 years ago we created our farm located in Villorba, a small town near Treviso.

Our principal occupation - and biggest satisfaction - is to cultivate vegetable gardens and orchards, making them luxuriant and healthy. We can't forget the arable fields for a needful rotation, the vineyards for our production of Merlot and Prosecco DOC wines and the organic honey that our bees - amazing helpers in nature - give us.

We cultivate 60 hectares of fields following an ancient knowledge. It's very difficult for us to irrigate our fields due to their stony land; on the other hand, they give mineral properties to our crops, making them more tasty. We work in harmony with all the living species who populate our natural ecosystem and we protect them everyday.
