your guide
Andrea, together with his father Sandro, runs his company with love and devotion. Father and son, both with a great passion for beekeeping.
The fatigue of work may at times discourage, but it gives Andrea the desire to go on along his path that gives him great satisfaction.
His main goal is to obtain high quality products which, as he told us, “simply means not ruining what bees give us”!
THE EXPERIENCE - VISIT PROGRAM
After welcoming you, Andrea will immerse you in the world of bees and in particular will explain you what royal jelly is and how it is produced.
After this brief “theoretical” part it will be time for dressing up and visiting the apiary where you will be able to fully understand what has just been described.
You will become a beekeeper for a day
Under the watchful eye of Andrea, who will follow you step by step, you will directly handle the frames and tools of the beekeeper, up to collecting the “sticks” containing the raw cells of royal jelly.
Back in the laboratory you can finally collect this precious harvest...
and the bravest will be able to graft the new “sticks” to take to the apiary. After a lot of work, it will be time for a refreshment! Andrea and his family will offer you a rich tasting of the products of the company. You will discover and taste the honeys in many and delicious combinations proposed by professionals!
