What you can expect

  • Enjoy an authentic experience on our family farm and discover the world of Bronte Pistachios through a unique journey that will take you from the early stages of the plant's growth to a food tasting of the finished products.

    The visit takes place in our nursery, where we grow pistachio trees and where you can observe the different stages of their growth up close. We will tell you how a plant comes into being, the grafting techniques and the care needed to transform it, over the years, into a productive tree.

    We will then continue through our pistachio groves on the slopes of Mount Etna, immersed in a unique landscape characterized by lava soil and the agricultural tradition that has accompanied pistachio cultivation for generations.
    During the walk, you will learn about the history of the Bronte Pistachio, the special features of this crop and the harvesting techniques handed down over time.

    There will be plenty of interesting facts, family stories and the opportunity to take a souvenir photo with our Giant Pistachio, the symbol of our farm.

    The experience will conclude with a food tasting of artisanal pistachio-based specialties, allowing you to savor the result of a process that starts with the production of the plants and continues through to the transformation of the product.

    Before you leave, you will have the opportunity to buy our products and take home an authentic piece of Bronte and its tradition.
