Carpino Beans PGI

They are Carpino broad beans , a Slow Food Presidium , grown by the Cannarozzi Michele farm on its own land.

The company is located in Carpino , on the promontory of the Gargano National Park , an area suited to legumes thanks to its microclimate and clayey-calcareous soils .

A native cultivar called Carpino bean grows here, typical of the area.

It is distinguished by the dimple in the lower part of the seed ; it is medium-small , green when harvested and becomes sand-coloured when dried .
