Harvesting

Today, I visited my mother and my father working in the countryside. It’s that time of the year in which all farmers of this land are collectively engaged in one single action: harvesting olives. An action belonging to a long-chained process that started months before, from pruning trees, fertilising and watering them. A process that certainly doesn’t end here, yet. Oil mills will take care from now onwards, producing extra virgin olive oil and potentially exporting it worldwide. For my parents, it is so rewarding to be part of such a grand scheme of things. For me, it is really thrilling to see them gratified, enthusiast and passionate about it.
