The story of the NoccioleNatura farm is that of a land, the Langhe, and of a family that has dedicated itself to it for three generations.
It is the story of a fruit, the hazelnut, which in the hills of Castino finds the best conditions for growth and development, and which under the expert care of the Ferrino family gives life to very high-quality products.
Today, the company is in the hands of Massimo and Nicoletta, a young married couple, who, with the desire to renew themselves, have chosen to continue along this path and keep the family traditions alive: direct sale and processing of the IGP Piedmont Hazelnut.
The strength of NoccioleNatura starts from the raw material entirely of their own production, which guarantees traceability from cultivation to sale of the final product.
This results in a complete and varied line of hazelnut products: hazelnut kernels, flour, paste, creams, oil.
Our philosophy is to guarantee customers a superior raw material and direct traceability from cultivation to sale, and as the logo well summarises, a genuine and natural product.
Wellbeing and consumer satisfaction are our strength, those who choose NoccioleNatura products choose healthy and guaranteed products.
The selection of the hazelnuts is manual, to eliminate the ‘bad’ ones
This top-quality product is made of only 3 ingredients: hazelnuts, cocoa and sugar
Massimo and Nicoletta are the third generation to choose to work in the world of hazelnuts
