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 and the UK and make arrangements for special deliveries elsewhere
Early Season

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. Last orders are taken for Christmas on Tuesday 22nd December 2020 before 12 pm.
Last orders for New Year are taken on 29th December 2020
Season ends
Truffles are often available until the end of January but number and quality can no longer be guaranteed. As a result, we do not take orders for white truffles after January 14th. The cavatori return to their homes to unwind and relax before the brumale and borchii season begins.
