About

Tenuta Vannulo is a family‑run organic farm tucked into the lush plains of Paestum, Italy. Visitors can wander the rolling pastures where buffalo roam freely and then wander into the cheese‑making workshop to watch the hands‑crafted mozzarella and ricotta being produced from fresh, locally milking. Beyond dairy, the estate offers a tasting room showcasing seasonal dishes made with farm‑grown vegetables, a traditional leather‐craft shop, and a small museum celebrating agricultural culture. The site combines the sights of a working farm with a genuine hospitality ethos, making it a memorable day out for foodies, history lovers, and families alike. The estate operates daily: the Yahoo‑shop opens from 07:00 to 19:30, the dairy from 08:00 to 17:00, and the tasting room from 12:00 to 16:00. Bookings are highly recommended, especially for the cheese‑making tour and the tasting room, which are limited in capacity. A typical visit lasts about three hours, allowing you to stroll through the pastured fields, watch the cheese‑making process, sample fresh mozzarella, and explore the museum and leather workshop. The best time to visit is during the spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) months when the weather is milder, the produce is in peak season, and crowds are lighter. Highlights of a visit include the all‑organic mozzarella made daily, a guided tour of the cheese factory, hands‑on experiences with the buffalo, and the charming leather workshop. Must‑see areas comprise the buffalo pasture, the cheese‑making workshop, the tasting room, the museum of farming culture, and the yoghurt shop.
