Tom Nuccio is one of the owner-operators of the Nuccio Nursery, located at 3555 Chaney Trail in Altadena, (626) 794-3383. The family business has been there since 1935, and they are known as the King of Rare Camellias and Azaelas. They grow every type of camellia and azaelas you can imagine in their mountain acreage, including Camellia sinensis, the plant from which we get Tea. Tom is a busy man, dealing with the public, and constantly working with his team with the never-ending job of the care and propagation of their plants. He has no time for random reading, but when he has a chance, he enjoys the remarkable book, "Nuts and Berries of California" by Christopher Nyerges [available from Amazon].

Bernie Sanders is a busy man; Bernie has fought tirelessly for working families. Bernie has been called a “practical and successful legislator.” Bernie lives in Burlington, Vermont with his wife Jane. He has four children and seven grandchildren. He’s not a guy with free time on his hands, and he has no time for random reading…. but, if he has a spare moment, which is almost never, we’ve heard (from reliable sources) that he enjoys reading “How to Survive Anywhere” by Christopher Nyerges [Available from the Store at www.SchoolofSelf-Reliance.com, from quality bookstores, and also from Amazon.]
