Producer Profile: Frank's farming philosophy is based on accepting that man will never be able to understand nature’s full complexity and interactions. Therefore, he chooses to concentrate on observing and learning the movements of Mother Earth in her various energetic and cosmic passages and prefers to follow her indications as to what to do instead of deciding and imposing himself. Consequently, this has caused him to possibly avoid all treatments on the land we cultivate, whether homeopathic, organic, or biodynamic. Accepting and following nature is his guideline as the divine ability to understand the ‘Whole’ was not given to man as we are only a part of this complex and not God himself. Real Mt. Etna magic here!
