Michele’s father hails from a long line of farmers in Pietramontecorvino, in the Daunia Mountains of Puglia, and it’s also thanks to him that Especially Puglia has become what it is today.

To all the fathers out there who inspire and support us – thank you!

Ever tasted sea urchins? 🌊 If not, you must when in Puglia! Did you know that sea urchins can only be eaten during months with an 'R' in their name?

🍋 Locals often enjoy them simply, scooped straight from the shell with a drizzle of lemon juice. Have you tried this delicacy the Pugliese way?

🌟 Snapshots from the Feast of St. Albert in Pie

🌟 Snapshots from the Feast of St. Albert in Pietramontecorvino, the hometown of our founder Michele. What is this feast?

Every year on May 16th, Pietramontecorvino comes alive with a procession celebrating the town’s patron saint. Starting in 1889, the feast remembers a miraculous rain that saved the fields during a drought. Since then, every year the statue of Saint Albert is carried to the old cathedral ruins in Montecorvino, accompanied by palij – long wooden poles decorated with ribbons and multicolored handkerchiefs.

The Feast of Saint Albert is a time for families and friends to gather, celebrating the rich culture and community spirit that defines this beautiful town.
