CASCINA DEI CONTI

 

Located in the rural area of Pinerolo overwiewing the Monviso peak, the fields of the Cascina dei Conti farm  are cultivated with respect to nature: cereals are processed without changing quality and properties. Over the centuries, local varieties and types have been selected and cultivated, according to adaptation to climatic conditions and productivity. This environmental and biological heritage represents the "agricultural biodiversity".
The abandon of those "cultivar" was leading to the loss of this environmental heritage, but local people strength and willingness to re-discover forgotten food and ancient tastes, lead us to re-start producing old varieties of wheat (Gran Turco Pignoletto, Ottofile, Grano Saraceno).  The transformation of these ancient "cultivar" is processed with an old natural stone mill, the only way to maintain the characteristics of cereals and corn, preserving the most valuable nutrients for our body: proteins, vitamins, enzymes, mineral salts.
The main products of Cascina dei Conti are: whole wheat flour, Pignolet flour, rye, einkorn flour, beer, snails.
