Let’s have a look back at where it all began
The first 7200 Olive Trees were planted at Longridge in December 1998 right after our daughter Taylor was born. We had a cast of thousands helping us glue pipes, plant, stake and tie up the trees, and cook food. It was a mammoth effort.
The varieties planted were Barnea and Picual.
