LeApine Miele with a key resource book, the front door box where you can pick up a jar & leave your €, and Tulio with his hives

…is the homemade honey operation of Tulio who we visited this morning – a first possible collaborator in our as yet somewhat undefined but clearer by the day spring project – at his suburban Pescara residence located on the land where his father and grandfather cultivated the land, and raised cows, where he as a child worked in the fields, where now he lives with his wife Danila and five year old daughter Ema (who was prompted to greet me with ‘hello’), in a new house built over the cellar where the cows used to live, which is now home to the equipment, vats, hives, jars for his honey in many colors and consistencies, sold to local residents, neighbors, and those who can conveniently leave their Euro and pick up their jars from a box out the front door when he is away.
