The first one is selecting the optimal harvesting period for the olives and then ensuring their timely transport to the olive press. Once we identify olives with the ideal level of maturity, characterized by a healthy appearance, good size, and color, we begin the harvesting process. We carefully collect the olives either mechanically or by hand and place them in perforated plastic crates to minimize stress during transportation to our olive mill.
