Olive country

The drive from Granada to Seville took us one day - we had a long lunch break in Estepa.

Nick and I worked on a really big olive farm in Australia with around one million trees.
It is a small farm compared to what’s going on between Granada and Seville. The whole time (roughly 250 km) we drove through olive groves. The whole time! And now you might think of flat land olive groves. Far from! It’s hills! So many uneven surfaces and quite steep. Not harvester-territory as we know it. I’d really love to come back and see what harvest season looks like over here.

PS although it looks more beautiful than the “mar deal plastico” with its vegetable farms, it is a huge monoculture with olive trees.もっと詳しく
