Life in Abruzzo is currently doing a series called, My Nonni from Abruzzo that looks at how such migrant heritage may reach well beyond its original Italian borders to other areas of the world through the influence of grandparents. Such a pleasure to be asked to contribute and be among these family stories.

I wonder, does my favourite tomato variety ‘Periforme Abruzzo ‘ have any connection?
The origin isn’t clear but a beautiful heirloom variety. x

Thanks Elizabeth! Much appreciated. Currently working on the next book. Zoe xx
