FROM THE CITY TO THE COUNTRYSIDE: Milica did pedicure in Belgrade, and now she is making winter storage on a stove at the bottom of Rudnik mountain

- We live from that, that pays for our studies, we are obliged to help our parents - said the brothers and when they are asked "city or the countryside", they unanimously answer - both!

Nenad is 25 years old, and he is just going to the second year of Master studies of the Faculty of Engineering Sciences in Kragujevac. When he is not in the city, he is either in Plaskovac, or selling his goods on manifestations in the area, like Oplenac VIntage. He appeared there with his girlfriend Sofija Petrovic, who is his colleague from the Faculty, but also, she is a beekeeper.

- We have apples, plums, peaches, cherries and grapes on about six hectares. We produce wine and rakija (brandy). I am pleased hot the grapes grew this year, they have a high percentage of sugar and it will make good wine. We took the fruits and the vine from last year to Opleanac vintage - explains Nenad.

He said that he was a farmer since his childhood because children on the country start helping their parents early. However, the made a decision to go to the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, and he is now in master studies. Nenad said that he will seek for a job in the profession he chose and that he will be in vineyard till he finds it.

They appeared on Oplenovac vintage with honey as well. It was not theirs, it was displayed by Sofija Petrovic, Nenad's girlfriend. They laugh at the remark that if they joined their lives, they could join their production.

- My parents have been in beekeeping since 1998. They have beehives in the village Trnava. I helped my father when I was little when he took out and packed honey. Back then we had acacia tree honey and meadow honey, and later mother and I started innovating, combining honey with dry fruits and herbs.

Our further plans are the production of creams and cosmetics in general. Also, my plan is to finish master studies and to get a job as a Mechanical Engineer, because that is my first choice. Beehives will be just my hobby - said Sofija.
