Congratulations!
AMNF

It is my third largest holding in number of shares. They grow tomatoes in California Central Valley and make great Italian foods: pesto, meatballs, tortellinis.
It has had a nice run, especially since the COVID decline. My guess is they sell the canned tomatoes Italian restaurants use and volume vanished in Blue States.

What led you to buy? Growing your own high sugar tomatoes I think I read restaurants like?

Amazing story and I remember sour cream and chives becoming a big thing as a kid in the 60s...

I think we need an "Italian History Month" or perhaps a "Southern European History Month" as my mom's family is a mixture of several southern European countries that met in SF at a time (1890s) they faced discrimination for being wops and frogs... My aunt was "famous" for eating a garden snail when she started school... now I know it was the kids bullying her and is one of the reasons my mother didn't teach me French to be bilingual as she didn't want me to get bullied like she and her younger sister for being "different." My have times changed...
