WOL here Hi.
was gifted a tree adoption 2 years ago by my daughter & son – in – law.
It was a play on words, as I favour a little sun on my body on the rare occasions that I get the chance. “Here comes Nudo” I did it first, but no hard feelings.
Anyway love the oils, had great tastings with the grandchildren but didn’t get round to filling in the tasting card. Just found your lovely blog, can’t wait to order the book & will re adopt my tree if I can afford to. Mean while I can but dream of sitting in the shade of the olive tree. Nudo, of course!

Oh My Goodness not only are my Olive Oil Shipments Delish, but I’ve recommended dozens of friends to read the book to get to the surprise at the end (10% discount!) Yeah!
Seriously I LOVED the book and don’t see how I’ll be able to use ANY OTHER Olive Oil after I’m finished with my shipment this Fall? Guess I’ll have to renew my adoption papers!
Thank you both for the greatest story ever written and for having the guts to do what you did! How do you spell J.E.A.L.O.U.S!

[...] inspiring recipes for olive oil lovers like me, and they’ve even turned their experience into a memoir (hardback pictured). Quite frankly it can’t help but make you want to find your own piece [...]

I just read your book today–straight through! It was fun and interesting and didn’t candy coat the ‘romantic’ life of packing up and moving on to new adventures. I loved it!

Can’t wait to start reading the blog and order some olive oil!

Cheers from Canada!

Started the book this afternoon, sitting in the unseasonal Suffolk sun…almost half way through already and I already love the book. The pace, style, and content are spot on. A wonderful read and one I’ll recommend.

And now I’ve found your blog I’ve a lot more to read, follow…and cook!

many thanks for sharing your adventure

I must have been a very early adoptive olive parent and my husband and daughters re-adopted a tree for three years for my birthday until last year when I got a handbag!
This week I read the Dolce Vita Diaries for the first time and realised how much I missed my slice of Le Marche life (and the packages, even though I have continued to buy the delicious oil). So I have adopted for myself this year as a nod to your enterprise and obvious skill. Great idea, great product – I hope you all continue to thrive in Italy.

Thanks for sharing your amazing story. Have finished the book and keep returning to it to re-immerse. Warm, very authentic writing style.

As a practising catholic, and a lover of Italy, this book and its references to the culture was just great!

Just finished your excellent story 2AM this morning. A great tale and I can visualise the packaging problems written about having spent 16 years growing elephant garlic in New Zealand! Also loved the font you chose, so easy to read. Thank you!

Hi. I’ve been on an intense study course since Feb 2009, and it’s just finished. Bought the book last week as a treat for the end of study. Seriously enjoyed the read. Laughed out loud lots of times. Love the oils and my mum is crazy about her mothers day pressie from NUDO.
