Pete Fraser from This Local Life was kind enough to drop in on us during a gorgeous day of harvesting where I had some helpers and the day was sparkling.

Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes in the olive grove? 

Recently I caught up with @thislocallife (Macedon Ranges very own podcast) and had a great chat about what it takes to produce the olives and bring them to your plate.

The discovery off the coast of Haifa made by a group of researchers from most major Israeli universities shows production of olives for eating started at least 6,600 years ago.
