Agriturismo Da Domenico a Cortona tra Toscana e Umbria
 
Agritourism "da Domenico" is not only an agritourism but also a farm.

The agritourism
We have five, beautiful, spacious and clean rooms available for our guests, plus a small flower-filled garden with a large pond containing fish, water lilies, lotus blooms, and a large swimming pool (16m x 8m) with a panoramic view. There is also a car park.

The Farm

Our farm activities include tobacco growing, woodcutting, fruit growing and raising small farmyard animals.
The vegetable garden, orchard and livestock are important with regard to our guests.

The vegetable garden
We grow the typical vegetables of the region, such as varieties of lettuce, carrots, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes, peppers and herbs.
In winter months our greenhouse provides us with winter vegetables such as lettuce, fennel, onions and various types of cabbage.
Our vegetables are grown without the use of herbicides or pesticides. Instead we respect the rhythms of nature and rely on water, sun, manure, and a very small amount of chemical fertilizer.

The Orchard
We have two orchards: one with young fruit trees such as cherry, apricot, peach, pear, plum and apple.
In the other, thanks to its altitude and location within the forest, we grow woodland fruits such as blackcurrants, redcurrants, raspberries and gooseberries,

Farm Animals
We specialize in raising animals recognized for the particular quality of their meat. Our free-range poultry live in a 7000m2 pen. Our animals are fed exclusively on cereals and grass.
