Biosolidale is not just a company, it's a project born with the aim of distributing local organic products; we process the fruit and vegetables from the farms we work with, and we have created a range of top-quality products: this is where the
Organic Roasted Ground Barley comes from
Organic Roasted Ground Barley
in our project we have embraced
Organic farming as both a choice and a philosophy, respecting the land and its fruits. Our philosophy also includes supporting small businesses in our local area; we have created a
network of small businesses operating with the same
organic philosophy as us, so as to offer an alternative to the traditional supermarket. Raising consumer awareness of conscious purchasing and the importance of
short supply chains and organic products.
La Terra e il Cielo is a cooperative whose goal is to enhance
ancient varieties of grains and pulses. The focus is on quality, not mere quantity. That's why production has deliberately been centred on varieties to be rediscovered and relaunched. We have favoured spelt (triticum dicoccum), which is excellent for making pasta. Durum wheat of ancient varieties (Senatore Cappelli, Taganrog and Etrusco). Grass pea (lathyrus sativus), a legume known since ancient times that in the past fed the poorest classes. Today its properties, quality and sustainability are being rediscovered. Last but not least,
hulled barley, excellent
for roasting, used in the past and appreciated as a
coffee substitute.
Barley is easy to digest and is a highly energising product. Rich in nutrients: it contains
magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, iron, vitamin PP and E.
Hulled barley was rediscovered by us and is grown by our members using organic farming techniques. We process it without the use of synthetic chemical substances. Our coffee has full traceability, thanks to the roasting plant built in 1999, where we complete the processing.
