Season
Pre Season
First white truffle samples are unearthed. We decide which of the younger dogs will be ready to join this year's team. Truffles are not sold during this period.
Season begins
Cavatori start the season and from now onwards will be out with their dogs from dawn to dusk in all weather conditions.
We begin taking orders. From hereon we make personal deliveries to clients in Italy, UK and the USA and make arrangements for special deliveries elsewhere
High Season
Full moon 12/11/2019
This is the peak season for white truffle collection. It is usually one of the busiest periods for orders.
Depending on the season, prices may be slightly lower: truffle stock market trends
The Acqualagna Truffle Festival ends on 10th November.
Late Season
The most tiring time of the year for the hunters, the weather is getting colder, the days shorter. Dogs are rested and have days off but the “cavatori” never take a break.
Orders are placed early for the festive season rush. This is the busiest period.
Season ends
Truffles are often available until mid-January but number and quality can no longer be guaranteed. As a result we do not take orders after the Epiphany (Jan 6th). The cavatori return to their homes to unwind.
