Why we chose them
The agricultural activity of the Il Forteto cooperative takes place on a farm of about 451 hectares. The first dairy was a room
obtained from the old stable under the house, the milk was brought with the cans. With the attention paid not as much to the
yield as to the quality and goodness of the cheese. The cheese room has been enlarged and has become a 3500 sq m dairy
while trying not to betray the homemade cheese.
