After a few weeks delay because of some construction going on at the Center, we finally got to pick then press Olives for Olive Oil. It was a blast. Pressing was a good time. We have three presses, First we would put the olives into the wheel press and crush them into a mush, next we would put that mush into rope-net basket deals, then we would squeeze them in our screw press and the other super old biblical type press. It was a cultural and historical learning experience.
