Moreno Moretti

Hello from Le Marche! Growing up in a rural community I have always loved the beauty of the countryside and the rhythms of the seasons working with my father whose large orchard specialises in the production of old varieties of apple, such as the Rosa Sibillini. This ancient strain of small apple was on the edge of extinction but we have managed to save and commercialise it. As a result our small family business is now part of the Slow Food Movement. I invite you to experience my fantastic region, its food and traditions. Do browse this website and get in touch.
