    Description

    Hi everyone ! I'm Guido. I live in the countryside in Tobia, a small village on the outskirts of Viterbo in the ancient and wonderful land of Tuscia. I am passionate about olive growing dedicating to self production and my olive grove is near my home (a few km). The olive oil is for self consume, for family and friends. I seek help during the most intense periods of work: pruning/harvesting. I like to share my knowledge about this world and I also collaborate with other agricultural realities in the area and cultural associations, with the possibility of exchanges and courses.
