Agriturism base near Bologna? Also food tours of Modena or Parma?

I'm looking for a country base near Bologna or somewhere between Cinque Terre and Venice as we drive in June. Two families with teen girls. FARM is good. Restaurant on site is good. OR, a great village reccomendation in Emilia Romagna for 2 nights.

A few years ago, we stayed at Il Palazzo, an agriturismo in the town of Brisighella. It was clean, attractive and very reasonably priced. There are apartments as well as rooms, and you can get dinner there. Additionally, in the town, there are two hotels with excellent restaurants. From that base we were able to do day trips to Bologna, Faenza, Ravenna, and Ferrara. We found Il Palazzo in the Karen Brown, "Italy: B&B" book, one of our favorite sources for lodgings. You can also see the listings online at karenbrown.com.
