Marco Camilli
An organic farm
In this interview conducted 2012, Marco Camilli, a former pharmacist who became a farmer.
The farm established in 1996 is about 36 ectars wide. It is located in Onano's countryside. The altitude and volcanic soil, where the company is located, give the crops, especially legumes, characteristic qualities such as quick cooking and great taste. The farm produces many varieties of legumes: the ancient lentils of Onano, Purgatory beans, pale green beans, ciavattoni beans, solfarini beans, yellow beans, cocco beans, Cerere chickpea, Flora chickpea, Otello chickpea, cicerchia beans, barley and spelt.
Special interest deserves the recovery of the ancient and traditional "Lentil of Onano", a lentil characterized by a large seed. It won numerous awards that were granted during exhibitions and food fairs, nationally and internationally.
The company has turned to organic farming in 2000.
