Best Olive Oil Production
Harvesting season is one of the most cherished time of the year for us olive producers. When this time of the year comes we start our laborious task of hand picking our olives. There are two seperate harvest seasons for Palamidas. One is called the Early Harvest, when selected gardens are hand picked for our Early Harvest Premium Quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil products. During this time olives are gathered only by hand to minimize any harm done to the fruit and to ensure the quality of the end product. The Early Harvest starts in the late days of September when the olives are still bright green and ends in mid October. The second harvest season starts in mid October and continues until the early days of January. This is when the majority of the gardens are picked. Olives that are obtained during this period are still high quality, the only difference is that olives are ripe to be pressed as well as ready to be consumed as table olives.
