OUR ROOTS
Originally from Abruzzo, the Passalacqua family reached the Tavoliere delle Puglie plateau. Giulia and Pietro, dedicated to the noble rural art of transhumance, were the first to settle in this part of Puglia.

TOWARDS AGRICULTURE
From nomadic herding, the family decided to turn to agriculture, settling permanently in the area. This prophetic and important change came about thanks to the courage of their son Nino, who decided to purchase several plots of land on the slopes of the Gargano National Park, most of which still serve as the land for Bio Orto's vegetables and fruit.
