From the traditional to the superintensive Olive Grove

I still remember the words of my grandfather Joan, a native of Arbeca, the birthplace of the Arbequina olive, who used to explain to me on hot summer nights on our family farm: “One day water will come to our drylands and on that day the world of olive oil will be very prosperous”. I […]

Painting and wine at CLOS PONS, artists in nature
