Stefano
Mellano Farm
In 1976 in Scarnafigi, a small town close to Cuneo, Stefano's father planted the first fruit tree in the middle of a beautiful Piedmontese field.
He thus began a special tradition that even today allows us to rediscover the authentic flavors of fruit grown according to ancient and traditional agricultural practices.
Time has passed and in 2006 Stefano decided to continue this tradition, buying some more hectares to expand this family business.
Today he produces Organic Apples and Pears, cultivated with an infinite love for his land, a passion for his job and a constant attention to the farming practices, by always following a organic and sustainable methods.
From 2018, Stefano started to implement biodynamic agricultural practices, aiming at promoting nature and its cycles, the seasonality of his products, with no addition of any chemical fertilizers or pesticides.
