It All Started with a dream.

Over four generations later, his family continues to carry on his traditions, hand-making all Volpi products using the same methods and recipes that John did over 100 years ago.

Tour de Florissant SPONSORS
The city of florissant
Florissant was established in 1786 by French creole “habitants”, or farmers, in the Spanish owned Upper Louisiana Territory. The residents named it “Fleurissant” due to its lush and fertile land, however, the Spanish referred to the community as St. Ferdinand in honor of their king’s patron saint.
The City of Florissant is the new home for Day 4 of the Bommarito Audi West County Gateway Cup. The quality of the course, neighborhood, and community is a fantastic backdrop for the races.
