The story

Set amid the unspoilt greenery of the Enna hills, the Agrirape farm works every day, driven by its passion for the land, for the protection, development and enhancement of agriculture and its products. In addition to fruit, Angelo and Melania Manna grow niche pulses native to the Sicilian territory that were at risk of disappearing: the broad fava bean, the black lentil and the grass pea. With them you can experience harvesting the pulses, which you will then find in the workshop, ready for purchase and distribution.

Angelo and Melania do not only produce high-quality peaches and pulses; their dedication, passion and personal stories tell the tale of the province of Enna and make you fall in love with it. Activity scheduled for the months of May and June.
