Tentua Santo Pietro is proud to offer a limited supply of our delicious olive oil, truffle oil, balsamic vinegar, other agricultural products, most of which are grown and produced on our property using sustainable farming methods, directly to our customers.
Our property is home to over 1,100 olive trees of four indigenous varietals. The trees range in age from 25 years to well over 100 years. We pick all our olives by hand, using traditional methods which ensure that the fruit is at its best when we cold press it, the same day the olives are picked from the trees.

A country needs to invest in its women. The value of human capital – the share of human capital in total wealth – is 62 percent. That’s four times the value of produced capital and 15 times the value of natural capital. Historically, education has been a catalyst for positive change. No country can achieve sustainable economic development without substantial investment.
We are developing an online learning community that models the education, support and empowerment that those women lucky enough to attend women’s only colleges have received, but we need your help! Please take our quick survey to help us understand how to best serve your needs.

Throughout the years, the ready to wear clothing industry has asked us to “fit in, to stand out” in order to love ourselves, but it has never consistently guaranteed that clothes will fit the way they were meant to. In an age where we can customize almost anything, conveniently finding your size when shopping online has yet to become accessible to the average consumer, and it is not for lack of demand. In a market space of 30 million bodies to clothe and a 2 billion dollar market opportunity size, unsize uses the intersection of technology and design to provide immediate services to find customers clothes that fit and feel good.

What began as a hobby, my site and its associated social media fingerlings are now a pun-packed passion. Since healthy food has been genetically passed on to me (see: last name Lemons), I use this platform to present all of my favorite recipes and habits with a twist – foods and behaviors that taste good and make you feel good; it should never have to be one or the other. I’m also using this site as an excuse to post my favorite food puns. It’d be a KALEamity not to, you know?

Judith Webster Reilly is an American designer based in Boston, Massachusetts with a passion for beautiful things. After discovering a pair of antique shoe buckles in her mother’s dresser drawer, Judith founded JW Reilly – Boston in 2009 and began formulating a fresh spin on an old classic. She patented her design for sterling silver ladies’ shoe buckles in 2012 and they remain unlike anything else on the market today.
Since the company’s inception, she has expanded her designs to include medallions, cuff bracelets, bangles, and money clips. They are all hand-engraved with either monograms, family crests, or a variety of seasonal, gem-embellished motifs. Each piece is made-to-order by New England Craftsmen, using the same hand-hammered technique invented centuries ago.
We hope you enjoy these beautiful pieces as much as the designer has enjoyed creating them.

COFFEE CAN BE BETTER
That realization inspired our founders to roast and sell coffee themselves from a Marin County garage in 1995. Coffee can be roasted better, brewed better and, most importantly, it can be sourced in a way that makes lives better. That garage became Equator Coffees and marked the beginning of a high-impact coffee company focused on quality, sustainability and social responsibility. Long before anyone thought coffee could embody any of those qualities.
After two decades, eight cafes and thousands of cups served, our impact has grown but our values remain the same.

Our great-grandparents, Cesare and Rosa Mondavi, purchased Charles Krug Winery shortly after the end of prohibition. It was Cesare and Rosa’s passion, determination, and vision that began to shape Napa Valley as one of California’s premium wine regions. Our grandparents, Peter Sr. and Blanche, took over the winery operations in 1966. After years of research, our grandfather introduced revolutionary winemaking techniques commonly used today, including cold fermentation, cold sterile filtration, and aging wine in French oak barrels – techniques we implement in the winemaking of Dark Matter Wines. Our grandfather worked closely with each of us to continue the legacy of the Mondavi Family until he passed away at the wise age of 101.
Starting at the spry age of 10, each of us – Angelina, Alycia, Riana, and Giovanna – spent our summers learning the family business. A typical summer day for us entailed odd jobs throughout the winery, including schlepping hoses, cleaning tanks, soaking bottles, pulling samples, and running analyses. A family tradition of summer winery jobs alongside our grandfather and father led each of us to love the wine industry.
Paying respect to the generations before us, we launched Dark Matter Wines in 2005 and purchased Aloft Wines in 2017. Although Dark Matter Wines is far from traditional, our mission is to create wines with the same passion and devotion as the generations before us.
We are forever grateful to our mentors that have helped to make this project a reality – Our grandfather Peter Mondavi Sr., our Father Marc, our Mother Janice, Kathy Simpson (Alycia’s personal mentor) a marketing guru, and our viticulturist Jim Barbour.

There’s a reason most gatherings end up in the kitchen. Whether we’re swapping stories or trying a new pastry, the best place to connect with others is around a table. AMIE is a small, specialty bakery that likes to think of itself as our town’s kitchen. The only thing we enjoy more than baking for our neighbors is spending time with them.
We also put a lot of care into what we feed our customers. At AMIE Bakery we make everything from scratch and in small batches. We use local ingredients from artisans who, like us, are passionate about what they do. From traditional pastries and classic breakfast and lunch items to homemade sodas and ice cream floats—we serve up food people love, in a place no one wants to leave.
