A family tradition

The long history of the farm began in the early 1900s,when grandfather Valerio Dalla Palma was in charge of the 7 Caliere,or the seven malghe that produced cheese in Valmaron-Marcesina with a single "caliera".

The witness then passed to his nephew Andrea,who together with his family passionately carried on the ancient craft of the Malagar,then passing on knowledge and secrets of the trade to his son Matteo,who today runs the Malga I Lotto Valmaron,continuing to produce cheeses of the highest quality.
