Vendor Biography

Varrà Food was born in Calabria in 2015 and collects the legacy of the family farm specialized in the production of oranges and kiwis. Today we grow and market fruit and vegetables, dedicating ourselves to the transformation of agricultural products. We produce preserves, jams, honey, Italian appetizers and tomato puree, following artisanal processing methods and ensuring high levels of safety. Our products are marketed through the brand Opera Terrae. 

We grow oranges, lemons, tangerines, bergamots, clementines,
kiwis, avocados and different types of vegetables.
Our organic production is certified by Bios.
The attention we put in our work is not only the result of a family heritage , but it is daily renewed through study, commitment and research. Innovation, which has always characterized our approach to agricultural work, is one of the characteristics that also distinguishes our commitment to the transformation processes of the products. The raw materials used to make our preserves come from our own land or from local producers with whom we share the idea of sustainable agriculture with an ethical approach to work. Through constant collaboration with a team of qualified agronomists, we have chosen to bring together the experience and vision of our family business, thanks to the use of a methodology that can offer cutting-edge cultivation techniques. 

The relationship with customers is direct and based on the idea of a short supply chain able to build an authentic relationship between producer and consumer.
From the experience gained in the field of processed products it’s also born a line of semi-finished products aimed at the food industry market. 

Our catalog is also enriched with a selection of other
organic products: flours, pasta and cold cuts. We enhance the resources and productions both regional and national, with the idea of networking producers.
