Piedmont P.G.I. hazelnuts
Since 1940, we have been growing the “Tonda Gentile delle Langhe” hazelnut, offering it in its purest form, both fresh and roasted, or transforming it into hazelnut flour, chopped hazelnuts, and hazelnut paste.
Natural Italian Honey
Thanks to our precious bees, kept in hives in the Piedmont mountains, we produce three varieties of honey: acacia, dark wildflower, and chestnut.
A Family-Run Farm
Scoiattolo Rosso is more than a logo on a label. It is a family, a land, and a way of life passed down through generations in Carrù, a town of just 4,000 inhabitants in the province of Cuneo, known in the Piedmontese dialect as “La Porta d’la Langa” — the gateway to the Langhe.
We have been growing Piedmont Hazelnuts PGI since 1940, honouring the roots of a tradition built on fields tended by the same hands for decades, techniques passed down by word of mouth from grandparents to grandchildren, and a deep-rooted passion that only those who truly love the land can understand.
How We Work
We are down-to-earth. We value practicality and people of few words who keep their promises. Just like us.
Sustainably
We have eliminated glyphosate-based herbicides, heat our facilities using hazelnut shells, and fertilise our fields with certified manure. Sustainability is a mindset, not a trend: it is built on real decisions and concrete actions to protect biodiversity.

Beekeeping: Our Bees and Our Natural Honey
We care deeply about the well-being of bees, remarkable creatures threatened by climate change and intensive farming practices that rely on chemical products. Our apiaries are located in the nearby mountains, where we look after the hives and harvest nectar from different seasonal blooms. We produce natural Italian acacia, wildflower, and chestnut honey using natural beekeeping and processing methods.
