How honey is made

Cascina Sabbione is a farm that is young but already has great personality, passion and initiative: in fact, they received recognition from the UN in 2018 for a social integration project. It is run by Alice and Nicola, a young Milanese couple who chose to leave the city and an office job to build a new future in the countryside, where they work by protecting local and seasonal product varieties. They will be the ones to welcome you to their farmstead among fields and animals . But the heart of this experience is Cascina Sabbione's beehive: you will enter the world of bees and honey to discover all their secrets, even going so far as to try firsthand the activity of honey extraction, thus becoming beekeepers for a day! The experience continues with honey tasting to learn more about the varieties and how to pair them. The afternoon ends with a "good, clean, fair" snack prepared with local products from companies selected by Slow Food Oltrepò Pavese.
