Environmentalist, vegetarian, a lover and guardian of Nature, of well-kept vegetable plots and eco-friendly farming. He gets very angry and plays tricks on humans when they disrespect Mother Nature or spoil her landscape. He has one great passion: beans. He tends and protects the plants, it’s said it’s thanks to him that Carnia beans aren’t affected by bau (bean fly) and are so good.
He prefers them cooked in a frying pan with lots of lardo; he can’t imagine them without a Refosco.
