ACCADEMIA INTERNAZIONALE DELL’ARTE CASEARIA
Since the end of December 2011 AFR (RURAL FAMILIES ASSOCIATION) together with a group of friends and supporters
created the association for the social promotion called “International Academy of cheese making art” placed in Bagnolo
(San Pietro di Feletto town) in the dairy Perenzin Latteria.
This enterprise was founded with the intention of developing the learning project for the milk working and
transforming, that was projected for young people of Italian origin living in Chipilo (Mexico) , exactly in Puebla Town, at
the beginning of the year 2010.
Other learning journeys were realized in Italy too, Treviso and Belluno Province. AFR represents together with CEFAL in
Bologna, one of the partners of the educational projects called “Gra-Mas”, carried out in Mexico with the Work Ministry
funds for educating Italian people living out of EU states.
Transferring the experience of our territory with the possibility of offering training, on international level basis, for the
farm and zoo-technic sector that needs innovation, or on regional level, in the north of Italy where there is no schools
for the cheese making, has driven AFR to go on with the training activity that received a great success in Mexico.
The educators, especially those of Perenzin dairy involved in the Mexico project for the technical training, have given
their availability, experience and rooms, that have been recently modernized, to start the Academy and its activities.
The purpose of the association is research, study, educational processes, development of the cheese making art and the
food and drink culture, and their practise. The Academy recovers every aspect of the cheese making art and food and
drink culture thanks to the exchange of experience, fairs, meetings, congresses…the goal is to give value to national and
international relationships among people and cultural authorities of the farm sector, to meet the requests coming from
the rural branch, and most of all from the youth.
Our courses, which begun in 2012, were attended by over 150 students from all over Italy. The school name is growing
in a very considerable way and now it is extending beyond national boundaries.
The course, which lasts 46 hours, is open to everyone and it is addressed to a group of maximum 12 participants. It
takes place in Bagnolo (S. Pietro di Feletto – TV- ) at Perenzin Latteria (via Cervano 85).
The theoretical lessons will be taught by lecturers or professional technicians of the dairy field, while the practical ones
will be held by Carlo Piccoli, master cheese maker award winning of the “Miglior Professionista del Formaggio nel 2012”
(Best cheese professional of 2012) by school Alma of Parma and he is also the Accademia director.
