The Orto del Borro gets its name from the medieval village of the same name situated on the hills of the Valdarno area, near Arezzo, Il Borro, and started life as the family kitchen garden. Today it extends for 3 hectares, was certified as organic in 2015, boasting a production system that respects and manages natural balances. The entire project is overseen by Vittoria Ferragamo, the fifth of Ferruccio’s children, backed up by expert agronomists and a specialised team of farmers and botanical experts, the aim being to bring the genuine flavours of the countryside to the town.

From garden to table

Every week, the Orto del Borro makes home deliveries of a choice selection of seasonal and organic vegetables, just a few hours after they are picked, to guarantee freshness and authenticity. And to assure correct protein intake, each Box contains a carton of organic eggs laid by our free-range, open-air-bred hens. A wide range of organic products from the Estate is also available to our customers.
