Lovely article!
I have alot of admiration for the way you are approaching this business. Your obvious respect for the olive farmers and bringing the best products for a reasonable price to boot to your clientele. I have been reading your posts for a while and I can tell you are very learned and worldly.We are indeed lucky to have you, your experience and opinions here at the Cheftalk Cafe. Forum.
Thanks for sharing .

Papa,
Thanks for sharing that here! It was a blessing to read about you, your family and your business!
I hope your profit dreams come true - just so you can continue to do what you love without worrying about money 
fim
p.s. what does it say, the line at the end of your posts - new oil and what wine? I can't guess what "vecchio" means

Dear Friends:
Thank you so much for taking the time to read the article and for giving me your wonderful, heart warming comments!
In answering FoodIsMe's question, this is an old Italian expression. It translates to "fresh olive oil and old wine" and it is used to describe good quality.
