Olive harvest season is here. Family and friends come together to collect the olives and prepare the year’s olive oil. This process is a labor of love and involves many different stages with the ultimate reward being able to enjoy your own home-grown olives and fresh olive oil for the months to come. We think it’s safe to say if there is anything that embodies the meaning of prosperity best – it is most definitely the beloved olive tree.
Harvesting your Olives
One of the most compelling reasons to buy property on Ithaca is not just to enjoy the glorious summer months but to take part in the everyday island traditions that take place all year round. Harvesting your own olives is just one of many local traditions that can be enjoyed in the off-season months.
Owning your own home on the island allows you to extend your stay into the quieter months giving you time to enjoy these simple moments of everyday island life.
At MV Properties we are passionate about sharing all aspects of island life with prospective buyers.
