Early September saw the arrival of much wanted rain, and wow did we get it! What we didn’t expect one afternoon was to see five (yes five) tornadoes passing no more than 20 km away just west of the Brijuni national park. Big winds are expected across our grove every so often but our well […]
June 2013 saw the visit of our young cousin from Germany to the Santa Margherita olive grove. Two and a half years old and apparently an expert on soil mechanics. He was not impressed with the balance and consistency of the soil and was insistent that he needs to see the red tractor again.

A spring heavy with rain has left the olives in great shape for a long hot summer. As the trees bloomed this year in June light winds helped pollination to give what will hopefully be a bumper crop of natures best.
