To live well you have to stay in a nice place and eat good and healthy things.
That this is the case at “Le Macchie Alte” is guaranteed by ICEA (Institute for Ethical and
Environmental Certification) which in 1997 certified our company as well as its products.
Extra virgin olive oil, spotted flower honey, Maremma veal and “cinta senese” pigs,
sauces, creams for croutons, jams and soups (everything organic) are the result of our
work. Take back home the taste and the scents of your Tuscan holiday!

We do organic by conviction and we are proud to be able to say that the company philosophy of Le Macchie Alte goes beyond organic certification, since, by choice, we do not use organic fertilizers or other products such as copper allowed in organic farming.
To make our land fertile we refer to the practices of the peasant tradition: land rotation, grazing animals for natural fertilization, use of sativa hemp, a plant rich in mineral salts widespread in the past, which makes the land of our garden particularly fertile and from which we obtain the dried flowers. Our animals eat only hay produced by us and live in a totally natural way, in the wild.
For the management of parasites in the garden and on fruit trees, we use self-produced garlic and nettle macerates.
Furthermore, the choice to cultivate ancient variety grains not only allows us to reuse the seed we produce for subsequent crops, but is part of weed management strategies since ancient grains are very tall and do not allow the growth of other plants. naturally present in the field. These grains, among other things, have a historical genetic heritage, selected during evolution, which makes this plant particularly resilient, adapting more to adverse climatic conditions.
Le Macchia Alte represent a complete system in which crop diversification creates the ideal conditions in which animals and plants find themselves in synergy and biodiversity represents the best antidote for the management of parasites and pathogens.
We still have so much to tell….. come and visit us and we are available to take you on a company tour and get to know our production values up close!
