Activities and surrounding

At the farmhouse, you will have the opportunity to taste delicious typical Tuscan dishes made with products grown on site by the owner and cooked according to ancient traditional Tuscan recipes. All accompanied by excellent wines produced from the grapes grown on the farm.

A genuine cuisine, simple, balanced and closely linked to the land that generates its products: potatoes, tomatoes, honey, pumpkins, zolfini beans and more. You can taste the farm's excellent red and white wine and savor the fragrance of theoil produced with the olives from the plants grown on the property's land.

The jewel in the crown is thebitter of the Podere La Fornace farmhouse. It was 1860 when the family botanist, Francesco Beni, decided to produce a digestive made from 13 natural herbs. Still today, after more than 150 years, the bitter is produced with the same characteristics, the same natural products and the same procedure as in the past by the descendant Natale.

The farm also gives the opportunity to organize lunches and dinners for special events.
