  Description

  Hello! We are an older couple, with a dual citizenship (USA &Greek ) and we spend our summers in our private home in Greece. We maintain our own olive groves a small vineyard and the grounds around our home. We have cats and a dog who we bring with us sometimes. On the land around the house we grow lemon, orange, walnut and other fruit trees. We also grow our own tomatoes, potatoes and greens. The house is near a major road with public transportation to the main city about 20 km away.
  We are not a bussiness. The small amounts of fruits and vegetables we grow are for our consumption.
