Azienda Agricola Maso Guez
Maso Guez is a dream, a wish, a seed planted in our beloved earth in summer 2014 when everything still seemed like a game.
Maso Guez represents the will to live and to make the others live the traditions of our territory, such as the art of farming on the green pastures and on the paths where our ancestors had walked.
Why Maso Guez?“Huer le Guez!” (“Listen to the goats!”) since we were kinds we’ve been listing to the voices of our ancestors speaking “slambrot”, our old language: “huer le guez, sluma le guez!” (“Listen to the goats, look at the goats!”) Everyone would smile when thinking about these curious but spiteful animals that we chose as companions for our work and our lives.
Here, in Maso Guez, your child can live the adventure of trekking with a goat-friend, and learn how to play with them thanks to Serafino and Andrea, and discover all the hidden corners of the farm.
