Wild Blueberries Jam Bio Il Baggiolo

Il Baggiolo

Baggiolo produces juices, compotes and fruit-based sauces at an altitude of 1400 metres. Living above 1000m altitude means a change of perspective. Respect for nature, passion for the land, the quest for a healthy life and natural food are feelings that are stronger, more tenacious in the mountains. In Abetone, the woods and snow-capped peaks tell of great ski champions, but in the high-altitude heaths, the undisputed protagonist of the stories is the wild bilberry, which has always been harvested here in large quantities. Thus began the story of Baggiolo, at 1400 metres above sea level, with Leandro and Marilena who, in the 1980s, opened a small workshop to process the fruits of the undergrowth. Production of the first jams and juices began, following recipes handed down from generation to generation. Only the best raw materials have always been chosen, processed by skilful hands that know how to give the right spreadability to the jams, making them easy to spread on bread.
