Dear friends and followers I want to inform you that the pallet is already ready and has basically started its journey to Berlin - Neukolln. I believe it will arrive  by the end of next week or at the beginning of the week after. Those of you who have already prepaid for a quantity will receive a message from me as soon as possible. Since my storage space is not very large, I would prefer to distribute the canisters as soon as possible. For those who have not yet placed an order for the 5-liter canisters, there are still a few left. You might still be able to get a small quantity. Please drop me a line here In any case, if you have any questions, you can send me an email or stop by the Saturday market in Schillerkiez. I’d be happy to see you either way—maybe even over a coffee!...

This is a photo that brings back memories of another era. In fact, it brings it back to life. It depicts a windmill in Geraki, Laconia (a few klm from our farm), where the locals used to take their wheat on horses and donkeys to have it milled into flour. This mill is one of those that exist around the village as well as in the wider area. Some people older than me still remember that time. Behind the windmill, you can see the snow-covered Mount Parnon. You will soon be able to find more short stories from Laconia on my blog: https://berlinoilconnection.de/en/blog/category/blog/. special thanks to @christinemorenin (instagram) for this picture...

Laconia is a perfect destination for exploration on various levels. Beyond the natural beauty, the beaches, and the beautiful landscapes, food is also a great reason to visit. Laconia produces almost everything, from honey, olive oil, oranges, lemons, luxury wine to all kinds of vegetables. The meat also comes from the region. The oxen in Mani graze freely, as do sheep and other animals throughout the entire region. The fish is always fresh from the Laconian Gulf. I decided to start presenting to you the reasons you should visit Laconia. The first category is a food guide. In the photos below, you can get a taste of the traditional pies “Pita travichti” from Mani region. In appearance, it closely resembles the famous Hungarian Lángos. It is a delicacy made from dough fried in oil and is often served with the well-known kalamaki or souvlaki (pieces of meat in skewer) or with local graviera cheese. The photos you see here were taken today...
