In the furrows we plant cubed seedlings that we water first by hand with rubber, Then with the drip and sprinkler system. When the plant is 30 cm tall, we tie it to a string supported by wires. They are specially placed to support the load of 10000 plants that can produce 500 quintals of tomatoes at full maturity. Regularly, during growth, the plant is cleaned of side shoots called “suckers” and lightened of excess flowers so as to obtain a good selection of tomato caliber. The ripening of the tomato does not happen all at once but “in pine cone” that is, in flowering blocks. When the tomato has reached the right ripeness, it is excellent for making the typical Ligurian “cundiun.” Seasoned with our extra virgin olive oil taggiasca which enhances the taste more.

In the heart of western Liguria, on the Flower Riviera, Capra Farm has been producing taggiasca olive oil for more than four generations using exclusively artisanal methods. This attention gives rise to a genuine and valuable product. In addition, today the company has opened its production to the latest innovations in the field of olive growing, environmental protection and the highest quality standards. In fact, the olive harvest respects the right ripening time. After that, quickly start milling. In this way, the oil retains all its nutrients, such as polyphenols and other natural antioxidants, which finally give the oil of Il Colle the typical taste of freshly harvested Taggiasca olives. From the olives of “Colledegli Ulivi” in the countryside of Diano Marina (IM), Azienda Agricola Colle degli Ulivi cold-pressed this extra virgin olive oil with a medium fruity flavor. Initially sweet on the palate, and with a very slight spicy aftertaste at the end. For this reason, our oil is ideal to accompany not only white meat dishes or cooked vegetables, but also salads, capresi, pinzimoni, bruschetta and finally fish. We were born on the shores of a sea that has always combined culinary traditions and culture. The Riviera dei Fiori is the “place” that inspires our world and our way of working and gives impetus to our passion for quality linked to craftsmanship. Our land, divided between rock and water, pushes us to seek harmony between the elements. This has been our philosophy for four generations, handed down from father to son.
