What comes across is her love affair with a farm and a way of life that is utterly captivating…[an] exquisite collection – GOOD BOOK GUIDE
In this entirely new book Carol and Michel have documented their life on the olive farm: the highs and lows of harvesting and pressing, the constant concern about water, the adoption of animals, and the anxious search for ways to diversify.
