Surrounded by greenery and with a large courtyard of animals, the Il Lillastro Educational Farm is part of the new Network of Educational Farms of the Tuscany Region.
Founded in 2004 with the “School on the Farm” project supported by the Tuscany Region and the Italian Farmers Confederation, over the years many programs have been created for families as well as for schools of all levels.

Request InformationSince 2009, our Educational Farm has been organizing summer camps. They are dedicated to children who love animals, countryside life, horseback riding, and good food.
