Virtual tour in the orchard and a new relationship!

tour in the orchard with peas, fava beans, garlic and sage

A tour in the orchard with peas (and not green beans) fava beans, garlic and sage. Let me introduce to you my new sweetheart.

Today I have been with my Sicilian family (my partner is Sicilian, born close to Palermo, in a town that is considered the capital of Italian artichokes) to pick vegetables: peas, fava beans, garlic and sage.

In the Tuscan countryside my heart breaths and I feel in the right spot. My job takes me to the countryside everyday. I must admit that I am not an expert of growing vegetables, being born and raised in Siena, a medieval town, with no access at all to an orchard.

I really had fun today and I met a girl. She is a scarecrow. Watch the video. But she does not listen to me. Just like vegetables.
