For more than 25 years, Stephen has been raising Limousin cows in the wild in the Sand Valley in the province of Brescia, Italy.
His farm has been passionately working in cattle and pig breeding for more than 40 years
Since the age of 20, Stefano, with his wife Chiara, have been committed to renewing the family tradition and, with daily commitment, enhance the territory with professionalism and reliability of their products. From March to October, cattle graze in the green meadows laid out on their estate in the hills between Preseglie and Barghe in Valle Sabbia, in the province of Brescia.
Their business occupies the breeding and sale of pork, beef, poultry and excellent genuine, natural, artisanal sausages, the cured meats are without sources of gluten.
Their small business uses the land particularly suitable for grazing from the nutritional and climatic point of view and the natural process of livestock breeding. The farm raises Limousin calves in the wild, which are fed with fodder produced in-house on the farm itself, which covers an area of about 80 hectares and from which it obtains space for grazing, cereal cultivation and fodder.
Melaverde and Coldiretti, acknowledgments to the passion and work of Stephen and Clare.
A welcome visit from Edoardo Raspelli, for an episode on Melaverde, gives Stefano a chance to explain the entire supply chain, from feed production to hay harvesting and drying, pastures, cattle breeding, slaughtering, meat sectioning, sausage preparation and curing, and storage.
Coldiretti’s Oscar Green for Vassalini farm.
Its meat is chilled 4 weeks in cold storage and then cut and sold ready to be cooked as in the best of traditions.
In June 2017 Stephen received Coldiretti’s Oscar Green, an award given to young people with innovative ideas who have chosen Agriculture for their future.
Enchanting pastures for a 100% natural and genuine product.
The farm has truly exceptional raw material, their animals graze in the wild in an enchanting valley. At Stefano’s, many people come from the city forwarding through the turns to visit him; his next idea is to open an agritourism. Culture, knowledge and traditions are not lost here.
A couple under 30 who love their local area and genuine products
Two years ago, the young couple decided to start curing prosciutto crudo, an exceptional product that is the result of a continuous search for high quality.
We would like to thank Stefano and Chiara who have accepted the collaboration of bbuono.it for the online sale of its products (not to be missed are its fabulous limousine florentines) on our portal, which is responsible for distributing the excellence of the culinary production of the Brescian valleys all over the world.
Why we chose the products of Vassalini Farm
The passion for tradition, quality, and the enhancement of the surrounding environment that Stefano and Chiara translate into high-quality artisanal products are important values. Vassalini Farm takes care of all this, and we thank them for agreeing to collaborate with us at bbuono.
