NUDO Adopt an Olive Tree
Nudo is an olive grove. And part of it can be yours.
Adopt one of its 881 trees for a year and you’ll receive all the produce from your tree. Imagine dunking your bread in your own oil from your own tree 1,500 miles away on a hillside in Italy.
It’s delicious, it’s good for the world and you get to show off to your friends.
Hang the consequences. Adopt an olive tree.

Redmond, 65, earned an entry in the latest edition of Guinness World Records with the world’s longest fingernails that have now reached a resplendent 24 feet 7 inches (7.51 metres).

Narranghi Olive Grove first Two Sisters pressing
Di and Warren West of Narranghi Road, together with Di’s sister Kerry and Paul Moran of Sydney, have produced their first pressing of olive oil from the Narranghi Olive Grove, just outside Braidwood.
Narranghi (Nar-ang-guy) means Peak of the Mountain, and Di moved back to the family land nearly 6 years ago, and the sisters decided on planting olives soon after.
The Two Sisters label, derives from the two sisters who’s great grandfather, Irishman John O’Toole arrived in Australia and settled on the property in the 19th century. He lived to 104 in the district.
With around 1100 trees in the grove, the learning curve for the new growers has included keeping the roos from the new shoots with electric fencing, and controlling the birds who love the ripe fruit.

Tunisie: L’huile d’olive, un produit de luxe
Il y a quelques difficultés chez nous, et son prix après s’être envolée vers des cimes à 7 DT le litre, il se replie à moins de 5 dinars sous l’effet de problèmes d’exportation, alors qu’en Europe l’huile d’olive est devenue un produit de luxe enregistrant une augmentation de 38% sur 12 mois (2005-2006), avec un prix au litre en France de 7,08 euros (12 DT).
Selon les professionnels français, “il suffit que l’Espagne annonce de mauvaises récoltes pour que les prix explosent”. L’Espagne produit environ 44% de la production mondiale et la France, qui a une production limitée d’huile d’olive mais grande consommatrice, importe la moitié de ses besoins annuels de ce pays.
