May, the beating heart of spring, gives us a spectacle of rare beauty. The fields are dressed in a thousand colors, a lively mosaic that enchants the eye and awakens the soul. In this magical period, after the care and attention of the previous months, the first small but precious satisfactions of the harvest arrive. It is a simple and profound joy to pick the borage flowers, with their delicate blue that seems to capture the sky, the bright marigold flowers, a concentrated ray of sunshine, and the scented oregano leaves, a taste of summer already in the air. And then there is the helichrysum, with its unmistakable aroma that evokes the sunny Mediterranean coasts.
These first gifts of the earth are not only beautiful to look at and pleasant to smell, but they contain within themselves beneficial properties and unique aromas. With care and respect, we collect them at their balsamic moment, ready to be delicately dried, thus preserving their essence for future uses in the kitchen, for scented herbal teas or for natural preparations.
Our attention is always focused on the biological defense of our crops. In this period of intense vegetative activity, it is essential to protect the plants from any diseases and insect attacks, always respecting the environment and biodiversity. We observe carefully, we intervene with natural and preventive methods, aware that the health of the earth is the basis for an authentic and quality harvest.
May is therefore a month of celebration: of the beauty that surrounds us, of the first fruits of our work and of the importance of a respectful and conscious approach towards nature. Every flower picked, every dried herb is a small treasure, a tangible sign of the vitality of spring and the culmination of a season that reminds us of the cyclical nature of life and the gratifying connection between man and the earth.
