  • Was a great orchard and enjoyed the tasting and visit to the old facility underground and learning how they used to do it hundreds of years ago. Was a rainy day so unfortunately didn't get to spend much time in the trees, but I think that would have been lovely! Very friendly owners.

    Superbe expérience à la Masseria Pianelle! Nous avons choisi le cours pour apprendre à faire la mozzarella/burrata. Marco, Umberto et Francesco sont une équipe très sympa. Le tour se termine par une dégustation des produits de la ferme qui sont délicieux. Je recommande vivement! Great experience in La Masseria Pianelle! We did mozzarella/burrata tour. Marco, Umberto y Francesco are a friendly team. We ended by a tasting of fresh produce from the farm, it was delicious. I highly recommend!

    Siamo assolutamente contente di aver scelto Terra che Vive per l’addio al nubilato della nostra amica.
    Siamo state accolte in un ambiente familiare, caloroso e molto pulito da due signore fantastiche.
    L’esperienza è stata divertentissima ed il cibo ottimo!!! Assolutamente da consigliare e soprattutto da rifare.

    My family and I had a fantastic time making pasta with Nonna Antonella and Chef Davide. We learned how to make four types of pasta and a delicious sauce, then toured the historic farm buildings before eating a delicious meal of local delicacies, wine and, of course, the pasta we had shaped. The experience was a highlight of our time in Puglia and I can't recommend it highly enough. Furthermore, the Terra Che Vive team was extremely responsive and communicative from the time I sent my initial inquiry until we arrived for the class. I would definitely book with Terra Che Vive again!

    Trough Terra Che Vive we booked the ''Dairyman for a day: mozzarella and burrata making class'' It was a great experience and well guided by Marco. All steps within the process are shown whereafter you can try it yourself. The tasting afterwards is good and abundant.
