Peter grew up on family owned farm in Frosinone, Italy and tended to everything and anything that was grown on their land from a very young age.

Here in Westbury, Long Island – Peter has created his own little slice of Italy where he raises his own chickens, makes his own wine, cures his own meats – just try his prosciutto and capicola, makes jars of delicious pickles and much much more.

Here is a just a little taste of what he made for an impromptu breakfast when I stopped of one morning to pick up my share of veggies. Everything he used from the olive oil to the eggs to the veggies was all from his farm! Now that cannot be recreated in any restaurant!

I can honestly say that some of the freshest, tastiest, healthiest meals I have ever had have been at Peter and his wife Maria’s table and all of it comes straight from the heart.
