About Catherine Faris and Pascarosa

New Fort Wayne residents Catherine and Brian Faris have deep roots in Puglia, Italy’s sun kissed region on the Adriatic Coast. They’ve owned a home there for 27 years, and 10 years ago launched Pascarosa, exporting their own prized produce of the region - organic extra virgin olive oil. Their company also offers one-day culinary tours, olive harvest and culinary weeks for travelers to dive deeply into an authentic and delicious experience in Puglia. Catherine is a former restaurant owner, cooking instructor and accomplished chef, with a passion for the local and seasonal food and the preservation of food culture. www.pascarosa.com


About Kerry Antonuccio and Antonuccio’s Italian Market

Tucked away in the ‘07 near Foster Park, Antonuccio’s Italian Market offers an outstanding selection of imported Italian products, such as cured meats and cheeses, tomatoes and sauces, olive oils, pasta and wine, as well as general items for neighbors who want to do their daily shopping or pick up last-minute items like fresh produce and dairy. More that a local food store, though, Antonuccio’s serves as a meeting place for neighbors to get together for a glass of wine and charcuterie board or panini. www.antonuccios.com
