Ripening


The olives are now starting to ripen. The green olives lose their glossy green colour and turn matt and then take on this plummy colour which will deepen until it is very nearly black. So we may well be on course to start picking in the middle of October which for us here at www.casa-margherita.com is perfect as we have our local olio nuovo festival over the all saints weekend of 30/31/1 November.
