Discovering Our Producers: Francesco Vaccaro Farm | The Nectar of the Gods

Francesco Vaccaro is a nomadic beekeeper who travels all over Basilicata in search of the best blooms to bring us extraordinary honey.

It all started with the love his father instilled in him from a young age, but it wasn't until 2001 that Francesco took over the business, transforming what was once a small operation into a solid enterprise.

Francesco's company stands out for its ethical and sustainable approach. Every stage of honey production is carefully monitored to ensure maximum respect for the bees and the ecosystem. Francesco firmly believes that the well-being of the bees is fundamental to the quality of the honey. Therefore, his hives are placed in pristine areas, far from sources of pollution and intensive farming. It is no coincidence that his company is certified organic.

Francesco’s business philosophy is based on a few key principles:

• Environmental Sustainability: Using beekeeping techniques that do not harm the environment.
• Artisanal Quality: Producing unfiltered and unpasteurized honey to maintain its nutritional properties.
• Bee Welfare: Maintaining practices that promote the health and longevity of the bees.

Francesco Vaccaro's commitment to quality has not gone unnoticed. His company has received numerous awards at both the national and international levels. Francesco’s honey is often praised in competitions for its purity and exceptional flavor. These awards not only confirm the excellence of his product but also testify to Francesco’s dedication to his craft.

The varieties of honey he produces include Millefiori, Acacia, Sulla, Orange, Rosemary, and Chestnut.

Francesco Vaccaro’s company represents a shining example of how passion, dedication, and respect for nature can lead to the creation of exceptional products. Francesco's honey is not just food; it’s a testament to the beauty and richness of the Italian landscape. Each jar contains not only the work of the bees but also the care and love of a man who has dedicated his life to an ancient art.
