Vincenzo has always been passionate about nature and sporting activities, and after graduating in natural sciences and a master's degree in wildlife conservation and management, he dedicated himself full-time to the farm's activities, training with the old farmers in the cultivation of citrus and olive trees, combining ancient and modern knowledge. He has been a farmer for about 20 years now, as he likes to call himself, focusing on agricultural policies (he holds official positions within the Italian Farmers' Confederation). He has increasingly approached the world of organic and sustainable agriculture, trying to build networks with otherproducers and consumers..
