Who We Are
Nature’s Renaissance
Fion springs from our love of nature, our desire to return to the roots and from the idea to give deserted lands lying fallow back its true value.
Our farm is situated in the Savuto Valley at an altitude of 550 metres. Our farm land is managed without chemical pesticides or chemical fertilisers, as required by local traditions and organic guidelines.

Savoring Every Season
We plant and grow all year round. Throughout the year, we harvest green beans, fava beans, peas, tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, salad, corn, peppers, fennel, broccoli, pumpkins and a lot more. We also grow and gather our nuts, almonds, apples, pears and plums and – on demand – sell them at the farm- gate.
All our farm products that cannot be eaten immediately, are preserved so that we can live of our own produce all year round.
Savoring Every Season
Sanctuary for Animals
We do not forget our animals, and all farming produce is shared with them. Our farm is a home to donkeys, ponies, pigs and Vietnamese pot-bellied pigs, cocks and hens, ducks and geese, birds, dogs and cats. Our animals are well accustomed to people and love their attention.

Embracing Calabria’s Roots
On our land, we have rediscovered many an old olive tree. We freed them from vines and planted new olive trees, mainly Carolea, Tondo and Lecchino. These varieties take well to our soil and produce our distinctively flavoured extra-virgin olive oil.
We also grow San Marzano tomatoes, which we use to make our special tomato sauce, following an old Calabrian traditional recipe.
