Cuicine: Meals are available to all guests staying at the Agritourism. For non-patrons, delicacies - prepared both on the agritourism and locally – are available only upon advance booking. Such delicacies include: salamis and roasts prepared with our own Sienese Belted pigs, various cuts of Calvana beef, wild boar, chestnut flour tagliatelle, potato cakes, Prato-style celery, bread soup, Tuscan pecorino cheese (made with sheep’s milk) with chestnut honey, and our own home-grown vegetables. We make our own biscuits, such as Vernio Zuccherini, Pratese biscuits (also known as Cantucci), Riccio biscuits and Florentine ‘schiacciata’ (a savoury focaccia). The wine we serve is the splendid Carmignano table wine. If required, we can arrange the for the tasting of bottles of  Barco Reale and Vigna dell’Iris – both produced in the Carmignano area.

Beekeping : The main product from apiculture is honey, a natural food principally made up of fructose, glucose and, in small parts, mineral salts, enzymes and vitamins, extremely assimilable and digestible by human organism. The colour and flavour of the honey varies depending on the flower species from which it was gathered. Royal jelly, only food of the queen bee for all her life, is for man, a stimulant which improves his general state of health, assisting intra-cellular metabolism. Propolis, a substance which coats the inside of the hive, has a disinfectant function, and thus is used also by man, for external use (as disinfectant for small wounds) and for internal use to ease oral cavity disease.
