  Description

  Hi, my name is Coralie and for three years I have been managing an organic farm between the sea and the Sicilian countryside. Our project involves the recovery of land and an old farmhouse. We take care of and cultivate hazelnut trees, olives, some citrus fruit, vegetable garden and arable land and we are working to develop a laboratory for the transformation of farm products.
  
  Ciao, mi chiamo Coralie e da tre anni gestisco una azienda agricola biologica tra il mare e la campagna siciliana. Il nostro progetto prevede il recupero dei terreni e di un antico casolare.
  Curiamo e coltivano alberi di nocciole, olive, un po' di agrumi, orto e seminativi e stiamo lavorando per mettere a punto un laboratorio di trasformazione dei prodotti aziendali.
