Goals, Values, Vision

I grew up on a small farm in Romania. My parents had a small vineyard, vegetable gardens and fruit trees. Helping my parents take care of their farm has embedded in my heart the love for the land and so many years later I feel like I need to go back to the land, to the love of growing my own crops. My vision is to grow organically vegetables, fruits, flowers and herbs, to make pure and organic skin care products and bake goods that will be healthy and maintain the tradition of homegrown and homemade products for my community
