The mechanized harvest is synonymous of quality. It allows us to harvest a wide amount of olives, justifying the olive milling the same day we harvest them. Thanks to the mechanized harvest, it passes on few hours from the harvest to the transformation: it’s a short step from field to trusted olive oil mill, that is likewise certified organic.

This mechanized harvest method allows us, not only, to minimize the production costs and harvest faster, but, thanks to vibrations, it permits to oxygenate our tree’s roots.

After the harvest, we separate almond from green husk, which is adhered to shell. After that, through specific desiccators, we eliminate humidity from inner seeds. Therefore, our almonds are ready to be shelled and then peeled. Today, as with the harvest, we use machineries in order to simplify and make faster our job.
