First batch of homemade organic olives
After a winter of curing, we have our first batch of homegrown, home-brewed olives, just in time for the Spring Equinox!
We harvested these olives last fall. The trees were planted several years ago along the edge of our biodynamic Cabernet vineyard. Most of the fruit hung in shades of green, some with accents of red and black. The olives filled two large 5-gallon glass carboys, along with an assortment of tenacious stems and leaves.
