The Educational Farm

Our Educational Farm, located within the historic Masseria Torre Zuvinu, offers a hands-on, immersive experience rooted in the cultural identity of Calabria. Surrounded by olive groves, citrus orchards, and vineyards, the estate has been revitalized through “Il Cammino dell’Acqua” project, co-financed by the European Union, which promotes sustainability, culture, and inclusiveness.

Our farm is an inclusive place, free from architectural barriers, where people of all ages and abilities can participate in hands-on workshops and educational activities. Visitors can harvest fruits and vegetables and transform them into culinary or artistic creations, fostering a deep connection between nature, art, and tradition.

At the core of all our practices is sustainability. Through organic farming, environmental stewardship, and biodiversity conservation, we aim to preserve the delicate balance between humans and nature, offering a real-life model of rural life that respects the ecosystem.

We work closely with schools, associations, and local communities to promote environmental education and enhance Calabria’s rural heritage. Our local cooperation network provides a stimulating environment where knowledge and resource sharing enrich every participant’s experience.

Visiting the Educational Farm of Agriturismo Villa Vittoria means embarking on a journey through history, nature, and culture—rediscovering the values and traditions that shaped our land.

Il Cammino dell’ Acqua

The educational itinerary “Il Cammino dell’Acqua” (The Water Path) guides visitors along ancient routes that follow the water’s course from the Assi river, crossing vegetable gardens, orchards, watermills, and historic olive presses. This interactive and immersive experience demonstrates sustainable water use and its critical role in rural ecosystems.

Intervention 16.9.1.b -Support for the diversification of agricultural activities into healthcare services, social inclusion, community-supported agriculture, and environmental and food education. Educational agriculture.

This section of the company website plays a key role in disseminating the values of the project thanks to its capacity to reach a wide audience. In particular, the section dedicated to the educational farm of “Il Cammino dell’Acqua” is designed as a virtual space—a stimulating, inclusive meeting point for the cooperation network. From this platform, we launch social media campaigns and project activities via Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, including a newsletter. These digital tools support a broad promotional strategy, enhancing the competitiveness and profitability of the agricultural and agritourism enterprise, improving its market positioning and expanding its range of services and products. At the same time, we promote social agriculture in the rural areas, offering inclusive services supported by ICT technologies, allowing us to deliver remote services and foster accessibility for those in need.
