THINGS TO DO AT BARBAGUST

Unforgettable & breathtaking experiences organized for you

Open and always visitable.

The initial project and the aim of our activity is looking at the well-being of the animals : cows, pigs, goats and also rabbits, chickens, dogs, cats , gosling etc…


FARMS AND ANIMALS

We love our animals, feed them properly and keep them in an appropriate place.

We try to make them live in harmony with the nature.


OUR PRODUCTS

No medicine to increase milk production. Following these simple rules, we make products of high quality, that customers can buy at our company store. Cheese factory is a modern structure that allows you to follow the entire course of cheese making. Customers will be able to see the techniques used in high valley of Susa in ancient times, escorted by a speaker giving you any kind of explanations.

Manufacture starts at early morning.
Barbagust then is not only a nice receptive structure but a typical shop as well, where you can buy genuine products made in our farm. You will enchanted by the “toma” of Sansicario.

DIDACTIC FARM

Our dream is to amaze you.
A dream coming true at the farm.
A dream beginning with the welcome of our Barolo, a loving Newfoundland, 60 Kg weighty.

Then the visit continues through narrow streets of the old village, leading to the cheese factory, where you can see containers for the conservation of raw milk and spaces where cheeses have to mature.

Soon after, you enter the real stable where Daniele answers to all your questions: “Why are there holes on the roof?” for instance. Or “Why to grow some races of cows and goats?”, and then “Why cows and goats have horns even if milk doesn’t come out from them?”

After explainations, everyone at work! You can try to milk cows or to feed little calfs.

But then the visit continues, there is still a lot to see. The hay loft, for exemple, wondering why the trusses are the biggest of the entire valley.

Then the garage, with tractors and other machined used in fields. In the end, you can play “cioche e ridun” (cows bells), the voices of the mountains.

We are actually working on a project, trying to involve grandfathers of the town, trustees of a ancient oral traditions. We would love to show everyone how Sansicario was in ancient times when you would have find more people of the mountains, more animals and life was completely different now a days.

This is one other dream of ours: move emotionally everyone, mainly young people making them step back in time.
