Truffle Trove

“We started growing our own truffles about 15 years ago. You take some truffles, mix with earth, then dig at the base of a young oak and put the mixture on the roots. Then you wait for eight years to get truffles. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t (laughs). We use dogs to truffle hunt, but we also look for flies buzzing around. When you see flies, without a doubt there are truffles.”
