Set



The fruit has now set on all the olive trees. The flower has finished and the small olives are growing. They start green as seen here and then ripen to a deep dark reddish black come harvest time in late October/November.

These olives are for oil only and should not be eaten as they are extremely bitter.

So now we largely wait for harvest time. I have yet to finish cutting the grass but hope to get that done in the next couple of weeks.
