WHO WE ARE PRODUCTS CONTACTSWHO WE ARE ROOMS CONTACTS. THE FARM AND THE FRUIT
At the feet of Mount Etna, in the wonderful Taormina Bay, San Matteo Farm lies into a 6 acres citrus plantation.
The fruitful lavic soil and the mild climate allow the farming of many botanical species. Among others, the feijoa, a sub-tropical running-bush, fruits very well in this area.Beside citrus plantation, which still represent the main production, we grow strawberry, winter-berry (Physalis alchechengi), raspberry and blackberry, which can be riping until late December.
ORGANIC FARMING
Farming is performed in the respect of natural cycle of the plant, using only organic and natural products. Beside natural straw and drugs, we are performing some biological struggle based upon the natural prey-predator competition. The sinergy between different natural practices, allows us to prevent from using chemical drugs in behalf of the nature and of consumer's health.
FRUIT TRANSFORMATION
Following the same principles, we produce our jam and confiture in a traditional way, avoiding any chemical and, as far as possible, reducing the sugar content. We have been positively impressed by the use of natural "sweeteners" other than sugar, such as the Grape Juice and the Wheat Sirup, whose consistency also allows to reduce the amount of pectin.
