What to expect

As soon as you come through our gates and up our hill, you'll immediately feel like you've stumbled upon a secret jewel, a hidden treasure.  One of the nuns or "Madre" will greet you and direct you toward the farm, where Madre Annie will welcome you and give you a brief introduction to the animals.  

Once at the countryhouse or "Cascina," set down your things and start taking-in the peace and tranquility after your hectic travels or busy workdays.  There will be wine, bread, and the convent's oil, ready for you to enjoy.  If you'd like an Italian Espresso, let's make it together!  There are jugs of cool (but not iced!) water also accessible.  This is now "casa," and we're happy if you feel at home! 

Now the crafting begins. Contact us at info@craftingonaconventfarm.com to personalize an activity best suited for the size and age of your group!

The workshop ends with a chance to take pictures with your favorite new friends (everyone pick their favorite animal!) and salutations!

"Tornate presto!" Now, y'all come back soon, you hear!
