What type are they?


Here we have the three different types of olive that we are picking from the Casa Margherita grove. From the top we have frantoio, moraiolo and leccino and the picture does reflect their different sizes.

These are the traditional Umbrian varietals and our grove is 95% moraiolo with the rest made up of the other two.

We are getting itchingly close to finishing picking - we only need another days picking but the weather is poor with lots of rain.
