Nestled in the heart of Novelty, Ohio, La Fattoria farm is a charming Italian-style micro farm that is a feast for the senses. The animals are treated with the utmost care and respect, allowed to roam free and live their lives as nature intended. From the gentle bleating of the sheep to the clucking of the chickens, the farm is alive with the sounds of happy animals.
But it's not just the animals that make La Fattoria farm so special. The stunning countryside vistas and centuries old farmhouse and barns transport visitors to another world, one where the hustle and bustle of everyday life fades away.
We were so impressed by the farm's commitment to sustainable farming practices. The family behind La Fattoria is dedicated to preserving the land and using all natural methods to grow their crops and feed their livestock. Their chickens eat fermented grains, a far healthier alternative to traditional chicken food. It may be a bit more expensive, but we ate a frittata made from their duck eggs and it was so easy to completely taste the difference. It's a refreshing change from the industrialized farming practices that dominate much of the food industry.
Overall, our visit to La Fattoria farm was a truly magical experience. We all left feeling so inspired by the passion that this family pours into their work. It's a powerful reminder of the necessity for small-scale, sustainable family farming in our world, and that we can all do our part to support it.
If you're looking for a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we highly recommend a visit. We promise that you won't be disappointed.
This was an event hosted by the Les Dames d'Escoffier International Cleveland Chapter and it was wonderful! There was a wonderful frittata making demonstration by our own Dame Marla Monzo-Holmes
