Qui l'allevamento è una delle attività principali, ieri come oggi, che il massaro porta avanti quotidianamente con pazienza e devozione. La masseria delle Murge è abitata da equini, bovini, ovini ecc. che sono il motore della produzione alimentare come per esempio la tipica mozzarella. Entriamo quindi in un'atmosfera bucolica che ci fa respirare odori, gustare sapori e ammirare colori che identificano il territorio. Buon viaggio dei sensi..
