    An Oasis of Biodiversity in the Heart of the Romagna Apennines

    Podere "Le Vigne" is not just a farm, but a true treasure of biodiversity, where nature expresses itself in all its richness and variety. Our philosophy is to cultivate the land in respect of its balances, favoring the coexistence of different animal and plant species.

    A Commitment to the Future

    Our farm is an example of how it is possible to combine agricultural production with the protection of biodiversity. Every day, we are committed to preserving this natural heritage, aware that the health of the land is the basis of our well-being and that of future generations.
