Spring is Coming to Malagronda: Behind the Scenes of Beauty
While the crisp morning air still brushes the Umbrian hills, here at Malagronda the winter silence is broken only by the steady rhythm of work. Many believe nature does it all on its own, but for us, this is the busiest time of year: it is when we lay the foundation for the special welcome that awaits you during the upcoming tourist season.
Caring for Our “Green Gold”: Pruning 1,600 Olive Trees
While the winter sowings are already complete and resting underground, our gaze is now turned upward. We are fully immersed in pruning our 1,600 olive trees. This is more than just agricultural work; it is an act of surgical care. Each cut is designed to bring light to the canopy, ensure the tree’s health, and guarantee that unique flavor of our extra virgin olive oil you’ll find on your table upon arrival. It is a labor of patience and dedication that requires weeks of effort, tree by tree.
The Awakening of Malagronda’s Garden
At the same time, we are tending to the stage for your moments of relaxation: our agriturismo garden. To ensure everything is impeccable for your arrival, work is in full swing:
-
Rose Pruning: We are preparing the buds that will color your sunsets by the pool.
-
Lawn Care: We have started removing winter moss and fertilizing the soil so the grass will be soft and vibrant green for your outdoor reading.
-
General Maintenance: We are refining every corner to ensure the property is not only beautiful but cozy and functional.
“Preparing Malagronda for the season is an act of love for our land and for those who choose to spend their precious time here.”
