AZIENDA AGRICOLA CARBONAIA
“Good morning dear guests! Let me first introduce myself: my name is Giovanna Raugei and you can call me here after Giovanna!
To begin here some notes about our structure, the Agriturismo Carbonaia.
In the second part of the 90s, as farming in Tuscany was undergoing an endless crisis, my younger brother alessandro decided to convert the farm into a very simple tourist resort; not a very special idea but, in any casa, one of the first similar undertakings in our area so that today we are proud to celebrate the 27th anniversary of activity..
While the only cultivated land left was still occupied by olive grows (we still farm them), Alessandro had the brilliant idea to reserve part of the breeding of an antique and rare race of domestic pig called (this is important!) “cinta senese”.
Cinta is not to be confused with a wild pig or a bore, no, it’s a very special pig that was forgotten since the medieval time simply because it didn’t provide the same amount of meat than a normal pork breading does. But… as it happens in nature, small quantity provides better quality!”
In their booth at the Tuscan excellence market you can taste their own meat such as: chicken, ham, bacon, fresh sausages and much more.
