After graduating from the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Florence, I started my career as a consultant, observing and analysing the world of agriculture and the companies involved from a technical point of view. In my spare time, together with friends who owned land, I moved on to the operational side and eventually the first five hives arrived. This is how it all began: a certified organic apiary with about 320 hives in production, based in Montebornioli, a cluster of houses in the municipality of Montespertoli, with 24 hectares of land, including an olive grove of 750 trees and a small vineyard of 4,000 m2.<br \/>\nThis is PODERE MONTEBORNIOLI.<br \/>\nThe studies carried out have been put into practice in the organic cultivation and breeding method: all the farm\u2019s products are certified organic, based on the idea of preserving what surrounds us and respecting natural cycles by interacting without stressing the ecosystem.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;fadeInUp&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; el_class=&#8221;ptm50&#8243; visibility=&#8221;hidden-phone&#8221;]<figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module wpex-text-center\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1594\" height=\"1594\" src=\"https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani.jpg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani.jpg 1594w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/giovanni-viviani-1536x1536.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1594px) 100vw, 1594px\" \/><\/div><\/figure>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;mtd20 mtm20&#8243;]Giovanni Viviani[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;fadeInRight&#8221; width=&#8221;2\/4&#8243; el_class=&#8221;ptm50&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]WHERE WE ARE<br \/>\nMontebornioli: we are located on the north-north-eastern slope of a small ridge that runs vertically from Via Colle San Lorenzo towards the Pesciola stream. A representative cross-section of the geography of the area, among vineyards, olive groves, arable land on the valley floor, woods and riparian vegetation. The property looks like a terrace with the Pieve di San Piero in Mercato on one side and the Castle of Aliano on the other&#8230; a drawn postcard becomes a real landscape.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;mtd20 mtm20&#8243;]BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY<br \/>\nOur philosophy is to make the most of what surrounds us, the fruits of the farm and its breeding, while respecting the land, using the organic method as our working method. Quality and respect are our principles.[\/vc_column_text]<figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module mtd20 mtm20\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1342\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mappa-podere.jpg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mappa-podere.jpg 1342w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mappa-podere-300x241.jpg 300w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mappa-podere-1024x824.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/montebornioli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mappa-podere-768x618.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1342px) 100vw, 1342px\" \/><\/div><\/figure>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;
