Harvesting Holiday October



We've just added a harvesting holiday to the website... Running from October 29 to November 5, come and learn about olives, olive oil production and help us harvest our 300 year old trees.  Mornings will be spent picking olives using traditional hand-picking techniques, and the afternoons will be free - continue picking olives, sight-see or relax in the tranquil surroundings.  Lunches will be provided on picking days, and there will be a welcome and farewell dinner, but otherwise your time with us will be on a self-catering basis.  You'll also take home freshly pressed, extra virgin olive oil from olives you've helped harvest!

It's a great opportunity for a few friends to get together and do something a bit unusual, it's a very gentle and therapeutic activity, picking olives, and the weather is usually wonderful -  t-shirt weather in the day with crisp, cold nights.  Perfect for a communal meal with some of the butcher's wine....
