The dairy
The “shared” dairy farm of Persone, similar to those located in Armo and Moerna, was built in the early 1900s by a group of breeders who supplied materials and labour proportionally to the cattle owned. Each member brought to the dairy the milk produced by their cows every day and had the “shared right” to make cheese proportionally to the milk supplied.
The dairy farm is located at the edge of the town. The areas dedicated to the processing of milk are on the ground floor while the first floor was and is still destined for accommodation.
