October: olive-picking season in your luxury property in Versilia

The pros of having a property with an olive grove

  

From mid-October to mid-November, plenty olives are read to be picked from well-tended olive trees. There are many properties for sale in Versilia that have an olive grove. Broker Immobiliare Exclusive Real Estate lists luxury properties for sale in Versilia with olive groves in the verdant hills.

Here are a few methods for olive picking. The simpler one, in Italian brucatura, consists in picking the olives by hand directly from the branches. One widely employed method is combing, in Italian pettinatura. The tool used, as the name suggests, looks like a comb. It is run through the branches making the olives fall to the ground on a net to gather them at the end, which will have been laid out before the combing.

An ancient method which has fallen into disuse is, in Italian, the bacchettatura or bacchiatura. This technique easily damages the olives, as the branches are hit with canes to make the olives fall off, and it is therefore no longer practiced.

Once you have gathered your olives, you can take them to one of the several olive oil mills in Versilia to have high-quality oil made.
