150 hectares of integrated and ecological agriculture where our produce is grown in one of the most beautiful agricultural land reserves of Switzerland with all the respect nature itself deserves.

 

Our agricultural estate is also our philosophy

The agricultural estate "Terreni alla Maggia SA" was founded in the year 1930. The farm covers about 150 hectares of cultivated land in the communes of Ascona, Locarno and Gordola. The mean altitude is 198 meters above sea-level, which means it is the lowest lying area in the whole of Switzerland. At the farm there are crop fields, vineyards and fruit-gardens. In the estate which is close to the protected nature reserve called "Foce della Maggia", an ecological type of agriculture has been maintained for hundreds of years. It's also the first and only agricultural estate that produces rice grown 100% in Switzerland.

Growing our produce and working the ground with passion and love, are the characteristic attributes of the "Terreni alla Maggia" estate that unifies nature and agricultural tradition, thus making your visit an unique experience

"Being so authentic that it appears to be an artist’s image, "Terreni alla Maggia" is the perfect union between unspoilt nature and modern agriculture."
