			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Found an amazing place right outside of Siena where they grow <a href="http://www.grapethinking.com/tag/sangiovese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Sangiovese">sangiovese</a>, <a href="http://www.grapethinking.com/tag/olives" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with olives">olives</a>, fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts&#8230; all in balance or promiscuo as they say. Not a vineyard, not a farm&#8230; I call it a taste palace, maybe there&#8217;s a better name out there. I might work with them to install a major solar setup and some biohydrogen generating algae ponds. In my dreams, right?</p>

<p><!-- bubbleGUM-start --><font style="position: absolute;overflow: hidden;height: 0;width: 0"></font><!-- bubbleGUM-end --><span id="more-2272"></span>Welcome to the first taste palace</p>
<p>Finally found one after two months in this country</p>
<p>Ill hit you with the pomengranates right off the bat&#8230; boom</p>
<p>Apricots, japanese medlar, <a href="http://www.grapethinking.com/tag/peaches" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with peaches">peaches</a>, <a href="http://www.grapethinking.com/tag/pears" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with pears">pears</a>, plums&#8230; apples down there</p>
<p>Vegetable garden, <a href="http://www.grapethinking.com/tag/sangiovese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Sangiovese">sangiovese</a> vineyard, olive trees</p>
<p>They make their own wine, they make their own oil. They grow all their own vegetables</p>
<p>Cabbage, carrots, onions, tomatoes, squash, zucchini, peppers&#8230;herbs, basil, salvia, thyme, rosemary</p>
<p>Pretty much got it all nailed</p>
<p>Thats Antonio, he&#8217;s the son that owns the place</p>
<p>We&#8217;re right aside of Siena, everbody knows Siena, I&#8217;ll show it to ya real quick</p>
<p>There&#8217;s Siena&#8230; haha&#8230; this is it&#8230; there&#8217;s Siena</p>
<p>But again, so we&#8217;ve got wine, we&#8217;ve got olive oil, we&#8217;ve got every fruit you can imagine, even pomegranate. Vegetables, herbs.</p>
<p>The only thing missing is what? Energy, right? Solar</p>
<p>Generate all this produce to sell back to the grid, generate energy to sell back to the grid. Bring people here&#8230; tourism. And not some pretentious bullshit where they come here and say&#8230; it&#8217;s spiritual&#8230; you&#8217;re gonna feel it, and feel god, and all that.</p>
<p>Come here and just eat the food, just eat it. See the energy and see the money they make&#8230; because it&#8217;s alot.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it&#8230; this is, this is it.</p>
<p>You start bringing these places, creating these praces, growing these places all over the world, and you&#8217;ve got a taste economy. You&#8217;ve got a transcendence from materialism back to a connection to nature becuase it makes people feel better, it makes them have more fun, it makes them more money, it makes the world healthier.</p>
<p>And it&#8217;s land too, so there&#8217;s all this space to generate energy from that thing (sun). So weird how this camera makes the center black. Anyways, there&#8217;s a lot of energy coming from that down into all this stuff (vines).</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it. The taste palace</p>
<p>Welcome&#8230; to taste</p>
