The taste of things made with care.

Extra virgin olive oil, cold-extracted in Puglia. Tomato sauces, pestos and vegetables preserved in Emilia-Romagna. La Madre Terra brings together an Italian pantry made from organic ingredients.

Everything is prepared in small batches, with care at every step. A drizzle of oil on bread, a spoonful of pesto stirred into pasta: simple flavours that belong at the everyday table.

  • Cold-extracted oil
  • Small batches
  • Organic ingredients

A workshop with a place for everyone.

In Rimini, La Madre Terra is part of the work of La Fraternità, a social cooperative. Its processing workshop, La Pietra Scartata, welcomes people in vulnerable situations. Since 1987, the brand has carried the commitment of people, with and without disabilities, who have found their dignity again through work.

Preparing, filling jars, labelling. Tasks are learned and shared, with care for the product as a common standard. This daily work gives the house its rhythm and purpose.
