Joe, his parents and his brothers and sisters came to this great country, from italy, when he was ten years of age. His family owned a farm and with that also a small fruit and vegetable shop as well.

When they arrived in Australia they settled here in Anytown, because they said that it reminded them of home. Joe and his siblings went to the local shool and were great achievers in their studies. But all Joe wanted to do was get onto the farm.

But by the time Joe left school, his family had sold the farm and moved to the city and purchased a fruit and vegetable shop.

That was forty years ago and Joe is now the owner of that same shop. Joe has been the owner since both he parents passed away twenty five years ago. He has built it to what it is today. A very friendly place to shop where Joe knows all of his customers by name. To Joe, his customers are a part of his extented family.

Joes not only sell fruit and vegetables but also a range of other everyday products. Items like milk, drinks and sweets etc. He is also gradually extending his range of herbs.

Below is what Joes shop used to look like on the inside. This picture show Joes mum and his three sisters.

In memory of Joes mum.
