Photo shows Dimotakis family farm. The Dimotakis family farm was virtually self-sufficient and grew a variety of fruits: figs, apricots, peaches, loquats, dates, oranges, lemons, limes, mulberries, melons and grapes; vegetables and nuts: peas, beans, zucchini, avocados, olives, pecans, walnuts, almonds. It also included a functioning olive oil plant, dairy, and aviary, and livestock, and there was an outdoors wood-burning oven for bread baking; and they kept bees for gathering honey. Most weekends there was a social gahtering around food and drink that often included a goat or lamb rotating on a spit.
