Vesuvius is one of the most dangerous active volcanos in the world and last erupted in 1948. It is only 1/10th of it former size. Its remains lie 100 miles from the mountain, supplying soil on top of limestone that provides a rich base for olive orchards, kiwis, artichokes persimmons and dozens of vegetables grown in layered gardens and used in the fabulous Mediterranean cuisine.
