The Farm Le Tre Stelle
| |
The Farm Le Tre
Stelle extends into the territory of San Gimignano
and is composed of two distinct farms: one located in
the locality of San
Benedetto at 2 steps from the beautiful village of
Certaldo, famous for being the birthplace of the
writer Boccaccio and the onion, while the other
is located in Ulignano
just 4 km from the turreted town known throughout the
world for its towers and Vernaccia wine.
|
| The farm, located in a quiet position
surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, was established
in 1998 but, despite its recent setting up, is now a dynamic
and versatile farm characterized by a strong devotion
to the land and to the relevant agricultural produce.
Here vines are cultivated with much attention and care
to obtain the precious nectar, which represents the most
important resource, followed by the production of extra-virgin
olive oil and of other local products deeply rooted
in the Middle Ages, such as saffron and Certaldo
onions. |

| Since 1999 the farm holiday
activity with restaurant service
has been added as well. So, besides art attractions offered
by this area, guests have also the opportunity of knowing
another essential aspect of the Tuscan territory, that
is to say our food-and-wine products. Here you can taste
the local dishes of the Tuscan cooking prepared with healthy
and genuine products: in fact vegetables are picked at
the farm’s vegetable garden, small poultry (geese, ducks,
rabbits, chickens, pigs, goats etc.) are bred at the farm,
while new-laid eggs are used for preparing fancy omelettes
with vegetables, delicious cakes, pies and fragrant tagliatelle. |
