The Lama San Giorgio farm is part of the “Teaching Farm” project. This educational project is for all kinds of schools and aims at creating a “local territory and environment culture”, as well as promoting healthy eating habits. There are three kinds of programmes which can be adjusted to suit the needs and the characteristics of pupils.

The visit to the Lama, a karstic rock formation created by flowing water, near the resort, begins at 9.30. The guide will show visitors the small woods in which brightly coloured Mediterranean plants thrive.
Near the lama is a small olive-press dating back to the XVII century, which provides information on the people who lived and worked in this area. Heading back uphill, the guide will show how table grapes are grown, what the “tendone” overhead training system looks like and will provide information on the drip irrigation system. Back at the farm, Anna will show visitors how cheese is made. Cheese is a fresh treat to enjoy for lunch with a traditional first course (pasta and sauce cooked in the oven) and delicious pancakes with seasonal vegetables as a second course. In the early afternoon children can play in the resort's great playground.
The arrival in Rutigliano is scheduled for about 9.30. The group will be taken to one of the workshops the famous terracotta whistles of Rutigliano are made in. Lunch at the manor farm (see programme 1) and a short guided tour to Lama San Giorgio are next. Departure is scheduled for 16.30.
