Picking olives from the trees on your Italian property certainly offers a good physical workout in the fresh air. It can also be a great bonding experience for family and friends. Plus, you can share the proud moment you see the first golden oil pour from the press, and taste it on a thick slice of hearty Italian bread.
If you’ve visited Italy, you’ll know that olive trees are in abundance and many countryside properties for sale have them. Some of these trees are thousands of years old, yet those twisted old trunks and branches still produce superb extra virgin olive oil.
