Agricampus - Summer Camps for Groups

The Agricampus formula is not reserved only for individuals. A day on the farm can also be ideal for a trip out of town for groups and external Summer Camps.

A stop on the farm, even as short as this day, will be an opportunity for a cheerful, carefree, but instructive holiday since the strength of the farm consists in the ability to rediscover those values ​​and traditions that we were forgetting and which often do not we are able to communicate to the new generations.

It will be a relaxing break, in the wide spaces of the farm, in close contact with nature and the authentic flavors of the earth! Gelindo proposes themes that include experiences of peasant life lived together with the family of farmers; the educational farm allows children to learn about genuine food and to discover how the foods that make up our diet are produced.

Our goal is to teach them the rudiments of organic farming and to recognize the true flavors of foods produced according to nature with the hope that after the day, they will no longer eat stereotyped and anonymous sandwiches, asphyxiated snacks and industrially produced foods, but they will try tasty cured meats, fragrant cheeses, fragrant soups, genuine homemade sweets. Polenta, buckwheat bread, grape juice and organic apples will accompany their day.

The new generations will also have the opportunity to understand the origins of what we eat and come to the awareness that animals are not just ready-to-use cuts of meat as we see them in butchers and shops, but living beings, friends and life companions sometimes used to nourish us, but always with respect for nature.
