I am so envious. Your photos make me miss Crete so much. One of the houses I lived in had an olive tree in the courtyard - ena vivaious Kritiko spitiki - and a Cretan friend showed me how to cure them. I notice that you live in Lanqedoc. One of my dreams is to spend winters in Sete. Winters here in Estonia are 'formidable'
martha Olive trees are so beautiful. I love their silvery-green leaves. We live about 1 hour west of Sete. I hope you get to spend your winters there one day!
cassoulet café We eat a lot of olives, mainly les Lucques but I love kalamatas too.
allie yes, I could definitely take a few. There are olive trees everywhere here. I've considered making my own olives but our kitchen is so tiny that I don't know where I would put them! :)

Gorgeous! I have a jar of kalamata olives I'm about to open tonight and use on my homemade Greek pizza!
Since they're not looked after, maybe the owners would let you harvest the olives?
I have some soaking now and I'm excited for when I get to brine them.
