  • Description

    Description

    We are a small farmstead based in the countryside of Lizzano, in South Italy, where we manage a Centenarian Olive Garden for familiar olive oil production and a garden for veggies that we enjoy every day in our beautiful place!

    It's a family made by three sibiling who want to build a little restaurant among the field one day... Little steps every day to make our dream come true! We are not a business, we are self sufficient concept.
