Olive picking 2020-2021

One of our very old olive trees

 


About 9.30am, coffee break!



All day working with a 'dembla' a long stick with which you can collect the olives


Afroditi collecting this beautiful green olives from a net


This is what fresh olive oil looks like!

In the evening we bring the olives to factory where the oil is substracted from the olives with a centrifuge



Outside the factory more bags with olives are waiting for
the centrifuge



Some very old trees are just huge!


This Kalamata olives are not for oil
but for consumption!



This beautiful landscape with its thousand colors of green!


Some of our fields are also pretty steep!
Challenging!



One tree 'gemato', meaning; completely full with olives!
