The Experience
Our centuries-old organic farm is nestled in the picturesque inland hills of middle Molise, situated along the scenic banks of the Biferno River. Positioned halfway between the Adriatic Sea and the Matese mountains, a region we frequently explore through hiking adventures. The bioregion boasts a harmonious blend of arable and arboreal pastures, interspersed with oak, hornbeam, and ash woods.

Muy stay with Valerio was a wonderful experience! The place is surrounded by nature and the feeling is incredible, I felt at peace. Valerio is a very wise and knowledgeable person who taught me a lot about many things and I'm very grateful for that. I highly recommend this experience if you want to be in touch with nature, feel peace and connect with yourself and the planet, and also learn a lot about permaculture and sustainability.

I spent the new year with the community and enjoyed very much the time with them. I recommend to have this kind of experiences. But I suggest to go in any season other than winter because it could be very cold, and the hitting is not appropriate for that time. I would say I had a challenging experience but very enriching! Thanks 😁

I'm so grateful for the chance to have helped out on valerio's farm. It's a very special place, you can feel the love, thought, and time valerio put into it. I learned so much about sustainable living and nutrition from him! He also understands the need to have a variety of activities so you won't get bored or stuck with one thing and there's plenty of time to explore the area. I hope to visit petrella again soon! Thank you for everything Valerio!

I'm very grateful for the experience I had here, sometimes it was challenging due to the cold, but Valerio shared his helpful tips on how to survive. The area is so lovely, you can visit the village nearby or go hiking. I loved the library, vegan food here is truly amazing, I have never eaten this healthy before. I will miss the salads, the soups and the chickpeas so much! Work is fair and is outside, I just wish we could work alongside Valerio a bit more. Valerio is very knowledgable in a lot of different fields and likes to share his opinions on life. You can learn a lot about sustainability
