Our Olive Harvest: A Celebration of Joy and Tradition
Every year, after the season ends, we are greeted by a truly special moment. The olive trees that frame Pamina Mare on both sides are full of ripe, shiny olives, just waiting to be harvested – a moment we eagerly anticipate all year long.
The first step is always to lay out large nets beneath the trees. With a special tool, we gently shake the branches, causing the small, plump olives to fall like pearls onto the nets. We then carefully collect them, removing all leaves and stems, which is crucial for the quality of the olive oil. Once the fruits are packed into sacks, we transport them as quickly as possible to the olive press.
This is where the most exciting part begins: pressing the olives. After all the hard work that goes into the harvest, it’s always a breathtaking moment when the “liquid gold” – our fresh olive oil – flows from the press. A touch of Mediterranean nature, captured in every single drop.
The olive oil is not only a symbol of tradition and our love for nature, but also a true delight that we are proud to share with our guests. The olive harvest is more than just work – it’s an event that brings us together and fills us with joy year after year.
We are already looking forward to the next harvest!
