Our Legacy
The story of DiIorio Farms begins in the heart of Italy, in a small riverside town called Ricca—just 100 miles east of Rome. The name DiIorio itself means "of the river," symbolizing the deep roots and strong family ties that would carry across generations. In 1900, the DiIorio family embarked on a new journey, immigrating to the United States. Among them was Nick DiIorio, just nine years old, as they settled in Bolivar, Pennsylvania in search of opportunity.
