Wine, oil and windmills - a new rural Tuscany landscape

Wine, oil, energy and hospitality - the Tuscan way of farm life is changing!
The Italian legislation encourages the use of sustainable building solutions in order to reduce energy consumption and to stimulate the adoption of renewable energy.
In the Valdera countryside the way of sustainability is particularly strong and is developing in a way that takes into account the wide spaces available.
It's so that in recent years, along with vineyards and olive groves, solar farms and windmills have sprung up, well integrated into the rural landscape: a new compromise between tradition and modernity.


The energy production from renewable sources is part of a wider farm - diversification process that combine traditional farming activities with tourism, education, social services, land management, etc., making the Tuscan countryside more and more interesting for a pleasant stay.
