Workshops on farming and harvesting of land products in Mottola

Description

Try the life of a farmer for one day! For this land products workshop you will find yourself in an ancient farm, surrounded by large rural spaces and stables for animals. Together with expert local farmers and breeders with decades of history, you will put your hands in the dough in 2 different workshops (plus a third for free!).

– harvesting workshop: depending on the period, you can participate in a fruit picking experience or other seasonal products. In July and August there is the harvest of fodder and wheat, in September and October the grapes are cut for wine and sowing, between October and November the citrus fruits are harvested, and finally in November and December there is the olive harvest and oil production.

– breeding workshop: our organizer will lead you on the path through which the main activities related to the breeding of goats, cows and other animals are carried out: feeding, controlling reproduction and pregnancy, participating in milking.

During the activities, you will have time to visit the farm and experience the beautiful rural environment.
