The story of Michele Ferrante's farm begins with a deep respect for tradition. Ferrante, a one-of-a-kind grower of Italian heritage products, has been cultivating his land outside of Salerno in Campania for generations. He has dedicated his life to producing unique varietals of beans, grains, peppers, and spices that are true farm-to-table specialities.

Until recently, Ferrante's products were only available locally, but Casinetto is proud to bring them to a wider audience. Our mission is to provide our customers with the very best in authentic Italian cuisine, and Ferrante's products are a perfect fit.

One of Ferrante's most beloved products is his Controne bean. These beans do not require soaking, making them a convenient addition to any meal. Ferrante's oregano is still on the branch, allowing customers to experience the full aroma and flavour of this herb as if they were standing in his fields. And his hand-ground hot pepper adds a unique depth of flavour and subtle heat to any dish.

What makes Ferrante's products truly special, however, is not just their flavour, but their performance. The unique qualities of these regional foods have been passed down through generations, and Ferrante takes great care to ensure that each product is of the highest quality.

At Casinetto, we share Ferrante's commitment to tradition and quality. We are proud to partner with him to bring these exceptional products to our customers. Each one is a piece of Italy, captured in a jar or a bag, waiting to be savoured and enjoyed.
