Discover the brand Fattoria Lepini: our interview

The Fattoria Lepini was established in the province of Latina in 1959, following a family tradition; indeed, the company is the result of the work of generations of landowners. The relationship with the land has always been very strong, which is why there is a deep desire to enhance it. For three generations, Fattoria Lepini has been located north of the Monti Lepini, between Artena and Rocca Massima, in the sweet untouched valleys of Lazio.
The farm covers hundreds of hectares of land, 40 of which it owns, from which it obtains the best products. The land surrounding the barn is used as pasture, directly accessible to the animals, in order to meet their nutritional needs.

Thus, the goal of this family-owned agricultural business is to offer healthy and genuine products like those of the past, rediscovering ancient flavors made with the highest quality milk, freshly milked. 
Within Fattoria Lepini, high-quality meat and raw materials are raised, processed, and selected to bring the excellence of Lazio to the consumer's table.
Choosing the agri-food products of Fattoria Lepini will allow you to enjoy delicious sheep cheeses and pork cured meats, all exclusively zero kilometer.

We love these artisans, these producers of unique, certified, and award-winning delicacies: they are true treasures embedded in our Peninsula among seas and mountains and in the most remote streets of villages and countryside. We don't just settle for experiencing their products; we want to get to know the protagonists of this brand up close. That's why we sent a few questions to those who manage communication with us.
