The Azienda Agricola Orto d'Autore was founded in 2000 in Molise (a small green
region of Southern Italy, between the Adriatic Sea and the Apennines Mountains
Chain) by the young women Angelica and Antonella, the wives of the D'Arienzo
brothers. After finished their studies, the two women decided to go back to their homeland
to carry forward the farming tradition of the D'Arienzo family. They started to produce
tomato puree first and then other products by directly managing the supply chain,
from sowing to harvesting, to processing and packaging. Orto d’Autore has always
been careful to the nutritional aspects, all products are made with: the use of selected
raw materials, mainly of own production and 100% Italian of short supply chain,
materials harvested at the right level of ripeness in full respect of nature's times; the
processing of the fresh product, immediately after the harvesting, in order to safeguard
its organoleptic characteristics and nutritional principles; the artisanal method
"homemade" of slow pasteurization at low temperature; no additives and / or preservatives
added; a full respect for the environment by using raw materials as possible
at Km Ø and green energy sources such as photovoltaic and wind.
To guarantee the consumers more, Orto d’Autore has the Organic certification,
Vegan OK (Gluten and Lactose are not used in the production plant) and IFS certifications,
in addition to an efficient HACCP self-control system for the safety of its products.
