Olives for pressing into our Woodlands Extra Virgin Olive Oil are harvested in April. It's a magical time at Woodlands; the weather is perfectly mild, not too many bugs and snakes, and there's the euphoria of reaching the pinnacle of the past year's hard work for everyone that's worked tirelessly at Woodlands Olive Grove.
Here are some images taken by Nick H. Andrews early one foggy morning (I mean he literally got out of bed around 6am to get these shots!);
Anthony Andrews took a snap of one of the tractors firing up to start the job…
The addition of our new groves is taking its toll on Woodlands' dams, taking their levels lower than we would normally like to see them.
There's always some "bugs"…
There's a reasonably good video detailing the harvest and olive oil production process on Youtube.
