The equilibrium of the climate exceptionally distributed on the territory in the most particular microclimates that they concur here the cultivation of the olive trees, here of the vine from red grape, more in here of the vine from white grape, and then at times the spontaneous increase of "macchia mediterranea" lowland in proximity of the sea, little higher little hundreds than meters from the sea, and therefore various in the kinds of plants, then immediately the spots become forests of "lecci", and then a bit more there they become beeches, junipers, oaks, everything always adorned from the presence of a myriad of marine pines in proximity of the sea, domestic pines as soon as little in the entroterra, twisted from the wind on the beach or high and majestic in the internal plain, and then a bit more rares and nearly suffering on hills where they are in company of the cypresses that watch from the small reliefs the plowed fields, seeded and milled to grain, in order then to come down to go along the Tree-lined avenue of Bolgheri where “ i cipressi che a Bolgheri alti e stretti van da San Guido in Duplice filar ….(poet Giosué Carducci)”, then one sweet curve and we go towards the inside to find the Senese, to inebriate to the smell of the Brunello di Montalcino, to watch ancient patrizie dwellings and majestic farmsteads in cooked and stone, to lick rivulets, streams, rivers and then the Arno into Florence and a new time down down more till north, towards Pisa, the fashionable beach of the Versilia with reflected in the sea the Alps Apuane; and then a dive in this blue sea and there you can see a little island, the Meloria, and of forehead the Capraia, the Gorgona, the sky is blue, smooth, what is over there? Elba, Pianosa, the Giglio, in this From Tuscany Archipelago are many pieces of Tuscany, with the same vegetation of the mainland, the fascination of the seas storm of libeccio that they fold the secular pines and they force the mirto to be low, the lecci has shapes from ancient fighters here because the wind would want to uproot them and they resist and they become muscular during the years. What is of beautiful on this sea is incredible, gulls, cormorani, tonni, dolphins, squaletti, all accompany to us to earth that stands out by now clear within the horizon, this earth that here, now, smells of Maremma, lagoon, ancient marshes, of indescibable swamps saltish, natural parks, Capalbio, Talamone, Orbetello how many villages and little villages, the takeovers of the Etruschi to Populonia are melted with medioeval Buildings, the Medicee Towers to scan the sea, Villas Roman to tell us how nice, here, there is from a thousand of years.
Here because the farm holidays in Tuscany.
What more is adapted to enjoy the wonders of this earth that not the farm holidays, a lifestyle breathing the scents of the campaign, of the Mediterranean spot, smells it of the activities peasants, the cooked one to the ancient one, the soup, the "ribollita", the stewed game, the fish to the grill, the "cernia" to the isolana, the oil of olive first spremitura, the genuine wine of small farm.
The Farm holidays in Tuscany is also a way in order to approach the great culture peasant, that it has rendered the development and the safeguard of the territory, of the species animals, the intensified and selected natural vegetation from the man in the sense of the productive cultivations.
The olive tree and the vine in Tuscany have been in the course of the selected centuries so as to rendering them resistant to the inclemencies and to the parasites, parallel their intensive system have put to the shelter a great part of the territory from landslides, fires enriching in exceptional way the landscape that appears tidy, cleaned up, healthy.

In the air in the small farms of the Tuscany there are the informative presence and organizational of computers, they clone the cypresses of the Tree-lined avenue of Bolgheri why they can resist to the diseases that assault the old exemplary without to change but the shape and the substance of how much realized 200 years ago, apply to the cultivations the techniques and the machinery of the third millenium, in short, in order to use a "Gattopardiana" phrase, "changes all because null changes".
This culture is not only learned on the desks, is necessary with of the experience of the old ones, of contemplativa observation also of the from Tuscany atmosphere, of deepened studies of agrarian and of veterinary, acquaintances analytics of organolettica chemistry, and above all it is necessary to pass more possible time in Tuscany.
