Hello,
I am Raffaella, the owner of country farm "la volpe e l'uva" and the organizer of the programs of "Let's Cook in Umbria”.
I have been living here since 1996, with my husband who is a musician, and our two children.

The idea of  this project was born thanks to my love for the region of Umbria, its products and traditions.
My goal is to offer an unforgettable holiday in central Italy that combines Italian food, art, and our local culture, an holiday during which people can live in a nice and comfortable apartment surrounded by Umbrian hills, discover the secrets of  our traditional cooking and enjoy of the artistic richness of our wonderful region!
Our programs include accommodation, cooking classes, half-day tours and meals. You will deal with the professionalism of people in an informal and friendly environment.
Our approach to cooking can be wrapped up in three words - simple, seasonal, and local. Our recipes come from the Mediterranean tradition, especiallay form central Italy (Umbria and Tuscany), but we revised a little the original recipes to obtain more healthy foods!

Simplicity, fantasy and attention are the mainly ingredients in our classes, and they are the base of the pleasure of cooking together. The programs on my pages are very flexible and people interested can ask me for changes, i.e. the length of the vacation, the number of cooking lessons and the number and type of excursions.

We can plan together your personal holiday! I personally answer to your email! My presence in the farm is a guarantee for the success of your holiday! The first years of work in this project have been full of satisfactions, as you can see from the testimonials page!
There is so much to do and see in Umbria, so let's get started, shall we? I have listed a number of our COOKING PROGRAMS, we have lots to offer - and we think you'll like what you see!
Hoping to see you soon here in Umbria.
I send you all my best.
