A mythological figure who was on a long road home for over 20 years. Besides it being a great book to read for me it symbolises the road we are all on. My mission 5 years ago when i founded Ithaka Organic was to grow the organic footprint. The road we are on now with our planet is one with a lot of challenges and not enough positive changes climate-wise. The organic and demeter sector is in my opinion the right way to go fruit and veggie wise, lessening at least thát footprint on Planet Earth.
