L’Agriturismo biologico La Casa degli Gnomi is the heart of an organic farm of 30 Ha. Fruit trees are planted in the fields (prunes, pears and peaches). The vineyard is planted on the slopes of the hills, close to the village. The varieties of grapes are specifically planted for making the famous wines of the Marche: the Rosso Piceno (made of Montepulciano, Sangiovese and Merlot grapes) and the Falerio (made of Trebbiano, Passerina en Pecorino grapes).

Several years ago owners Mariella and Geremia and their children decided to restore the three old country-houses on their farmyard in the typical style of the Marche and turn them into an agriturismo.

The agriturismo’s name, la casa degli gnomi (the house of the gnomes), was chosen out of sympathy for these inhabitants of forests and fields. The name comes from the Greek “gnomos”, which means ‘to know’, referring to their knowledge and their care for nature. They know everything about flora and fauna. Therefore these creatures are very welcome and almost indispensable on a farm.
