[@peggyboehnlein8755]

Kids, I will never complain about the price of good olive oil again! 😮 Thank you for what u do, it's amazing!

[@kikiarhi5301]

Absolutely agree ❤ so much hard work behind it

[@gaijajazz]

I said the same!!! 😀

[@MyNest20]

I love that you called them kids ❤️

[@dolphinbear661]

2nd year watching your olive harvest. It still makes me cry at the beauty of your land, the trees, the beautiful friends & family all coming together in an ancient, agrarian pursuit. Just so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

[@dggivens8433]

THIS IS THE BEST FAMILY OF LOVING BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE AND LIFE IN GENERAL!!

[@believingtoday]

Luce soaks it all in and I love how she copies your words and actions. What a life she is having and will continue to have with her baby sister!

[@rhonaklipp]

It looks like such hard work! The olives on the second day look like "Eggies". All the different colors of them. By the third day the job looks overwhelming! I'm glad your baby isn't due at this time! So glad you have the tent set up!

[@susanstimson871]

I was sitting here with my morning coffee waiting for you to post. You are my Sunday morning sunshine!!

[@billlazzaro1401]

Congratulations Sara and Luca on an incredible olive harvest!

[@rachelfrees1268]

Great harvest. You all are the beautiful people. So much love and kindness. Blessings.

[@cmlackey1]

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. You are a beautiful family, so kind so loving. I am not surprised you had folks from all over the world come together for a common goal to help with the harvest. The love you share with one another and with those around you is exactly what this world needs more of. I pray blessing over you and your family. ❤❤❤❤

[@earthangeloflove]

Luce is adorable and very smart ❤❤You are such a good and loving Mother

[@lindagardenlady]

Here comes the olive picking!! Yippie!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@lindagardenlady]

PS-what a great time! Fantastic videos afterward! Very emotional and positive ❤❤❤

[@joycecollins1515]

I love watching this video. Do you pay your helper with money or oil. How much do you have to pay to process and what do you with oil you can’t use in a year. Such a happy family and Lucy to have such good friend to help.

[@Schatzie301]

Gives us an all new appreciation for the olive oil we take for granted. Loved this episode as usual. Luche is getting more precious by the day, if that is possible. Her reaction to the oil tasting was priceless.

[@Cat-v6u]

What you buy in the store is very watered down and weak. Will give you almost NO health benefits.

[@Moonlightdance58]

There is something so wonderful about a community coming together to perform a task. I love it.

[@katalinas9264]

Watching your friends comment on the harvest was very sweet. Beautiful people!

[@kellystenson7800]

Sara and Luca, and of course Luce, I love watching the harvest process with your friends and family working together and having a good time working so hard, to seeing the final product, your very own beautiful delicious extra virgin olive oil. Sara, you look fabulous. Cheers to a successful 2024 harvest!! Much love to you. God bless

[@janjohnson3414]

Delightful background music yet again Sara. You have a great knack of being able to match perfectly the music with the story. It’s lovely to see the olives being harvested again - how quickly a year goes!

[@sanjasanja3114]

Greetings from Croatia, good people! Here in Dalmatia (Zadar), we call these dark, smaller olives "italians", they give a much higher percentage of oil than ordinary, larger olives that are common in our region. In our country, such olives are called "oblice" because they are round. It is interesting that when you plant olives, you must have at least two types of olives so that they can pollinate each other well. In our country, people also plant olives, which they call "grkinje, (greek olives) because they bear large fruit and they are the best for preserving and consuming. I wish you a good harvest!

[@carleenmessina5022]

I visited Croatia in May and it was so beautiful! I am going back in August!

[@glendahughes6797]

Nature in abundance, in all her glory 🙏liquid Gold lovely people

[@veronikak3277]

It's wonderful to have such an olve plantation!

[@ciaobella8963]

In Italian an olive grove is called an "oliveto" 🙂👍

[@lindamayer190]

[@beverlyt.5526]

Now I completely understand why I pay so much for good extra virgin olive 🫒 oil 💚!!! Western Upstate NY Here

[@avivat3010]

What an amazing harvest! Lots of hard work. but good friendship growing. Little Luce was a great worker. Luca and Sara, I hope you both have a good, well-deserved rest. The oil looks so tasty. Thank you for sharing your wonderful life!!

[@dianesmith7472]

Such a beautiful family and video - second Olive harvest season- a whole new appreciation for “God’s liquid Gold

[@futurekron]

Oh, it so sweet to watch baby girl mimic mommy and daddy. Congrats on a wonderful harvest.

[@danielammah5214]

What a wonderful thing to witness!So beautiful seeing all these wonderful people coming together to help in the harvesting. I'd love to be part of this group!You guys are amazing, and may God bless you all!❤

[@kimghoss6021]

Gooooooood evening beautiful people in beautiful Italy!.This is the second olive harvest I’ve watched tonight!!.The first was your darling friends Nicki and Carlo.Yes it’s hard work but so rewarding.Love to you all xx see you next Sunday ❤❤❤

[@emilys9365]

Same! And they said, with all of the rain they got, their olives were mostly water so this is good news that Sara and Luca have had better luck! Edited to say whoops! Sara explained that! But it is amazing to see oil that green come from olives that are so black. Amazing!

[@hailahafley-kluver2052]

It really helps to have a large group of friends to help with the olive harvest. The friends I help have a large group of two shifts for two days. I've helped with the harvesting and with preparing meals for the groups that help. The morning group gets lunch, and an afternoon group gets dinner, each day. It can be hard work, but so nice to be with friends and meet new people that join in the harvest each year. And, of course, we all buy oil once pressed.

[@RobertVentura-xi4vn]

So happy that you have such great friends to help you with the olive harvest!! Hope the olive harvest brings more success in the olive oil production!! Love you guys and Luce!!❤

[@peggyblack1739]

So glad you had a good harvest

[@rialegrange9269]

from South Africa with love and now I will treasure my olive oil do much more❤

[@richardthornhill4630]

Incredible experience. Wonderful and thanks to all who made the harvesting timely and productive.

[@Mej_Javiky]

Thank you for including us in the process.

[@deirdrecerasa3932]

Luca, Sara and precious Luce, I am so happy you had a good harvest. You are a lovely family of three, soon to be four. ❤

[@Ponkelina]

The colour of the olive oil in the mill looks incredible. The work looks exhausting! Caterina is so kind to cook so much for you.

[@debsmann9218]

AMAZING ❤ I THINK YOU GUYS ARE TRULY AWESOME AND THE EXPERIENCE AND LOVE YOU GIVE IS BEAUTIFUL. GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS ❤

[@josefinacoloma2851]

I will never see olive oil the same. What an amazing experience. A dream. Congratulations on your amazing grove.

[@davidpalmisano4202]

Merci . C’est magnifique . Ce sont les valeurs traditionnelles, cela se perd et cela fait plaisir de voir que vous n’avez pas oubliez les belles traditions .

[@billlazzaro1401]

Sara, we loved your red bandanna. You look like Rosie the riveter, an iconic WWII symbol of female strength.

[@dennistinucci5735]

To think that here on this land some of these olive trees have been producing olives annually for over a thousand years make harvesting an almost religious ritual. As you said, you have picked a perfect location, and having thousand year-old olive trees still growing is verification of that. Such a wonderful experience watching your efforts and success. Thank you for sharing. Ciao, ciao.

[@TraciKyle]

Little Lucia looks like her Nonna Bruna. Happy harvesting!!!

[@Reet64]

Great harvest with excellent friends!

[@lena-roseorlando219]

So much work….and what wonderful helpers. Seeing Bruna was great! Glad she is there to help and spend time with Luce. Quite the harvest again this year. Fascinating to see the process.

[@wayneevans5050]

So cute to see Lucha chatting with the women while working. Like a scene from the past. what a way to grow up.

[@jamesheckathorn5760]

Thanks for sharing the process - fascinating!

[@donnadunn8128]

What a wonderful harvest this year with beautiful friends and family! The work is hard, but it is so rewarding for you! May God bless you and your sweet family!🤗❤🇺🇸

[@amyschneidhorst1384]

Congratulations on a successful harvest!..Especially after the fire and all your worries about the trees. Well done to the entire team.

[@davemarriott]

[@Catherine3296]

Thank you for showing us the process in the mill and how it works, that was interesting. That is hard work what you all did, it was very nice of everyone who came from all Over to help and support you. 🥰🤗

[@Helen78SouthAfrica]

Hello Sara Luca and Luce I am relaxing watching you with the olive 🫒🫒🫒🫒🫒🫒

[@scottmcclean2566]

Oh man, I'd give anything to be able to pick olives in the a.m., then have the oil for dinner in the p.m. 🙂

[@doriamoreira158]

Hello Luca, Sara ,Luce & baby girl❤❤❤❤ that is the first time I’ve ever seen how the olives are harvest and turned into olive oil. I know it was a lot of work, but I’m so glad you had some good help. I bet that olive oil taste wonderful ❤ u guys, take care! Bjs 🫒🫒🫒😅👍

[@teresemills7980]

Oh I want to be there ❤

[@barbaraharrison6256]

The value of good friends cannot be measured. You have been blessed with so many good friends, and they have been blessed in having you as friends too. As I watched the video I also turned to day dreaming. How I wish I could be part of such a team! I'm no longer physically up to much so I think my role would have to be as 'Final Leaf Eliminator', riddling through the buckets before the bagging, to remove as many more leaves and twigs as possible. :-) Great vlog as always. Thanks.

[@stevendhaliwal1649]

A lot of hard work brings you the beautiful nectar of olives. So proud of you Luca and Sara to see you become owners of this precious land🙏

[@thinkforyourselfjohn3167]

I'm so excited for the both of you. What a Blessing you have help with the harvesting. Thank you for bringing us along ❤❤

[@leilacristinapereira461]

Life means living beautiful and simple moments like this. May God bless your everlasting harvesting and all those who make it possible 🙌🥰

[@MarianneStenberdt]

Wish you a great harvest. Nice to see all your wonderful helpers. ❤😍

[@lindadavis3728]

Beautiful comments from the group of wonderful people that came far and wide to provided a successful harvest. Luca and Sara are blessed.

[@steveirwin3699]

Ah guys!!!! Loved seeing old and new faces of friends that came to help with the harvest, many hands make the work lite :) We would love to come next year and help, its been on our hearts to make a trip out, time to just get it on the calendar. Seeing the excitement on everyones faces to try the olive oil after all the hard work of harvesting is really sweet to see. We've harvested our olives but just to can the fruit, it would be amazing to find a plce that can extract the oil. Thank you guys for sharing, love and blessings! s&r

[@pliny8308]

Luce's Italian is so beautiful. She sings the words.

[@whiteroses47]

I was so looking forward to this video all week, and the time has finally come. This took a lot of work and everyone did a splendid job. Cold pressed olive oil is the best! Great job, everyone!

[@MP4JC]

God blessed you with a great harvest! It is great to watch the process. God Bless you all!

[@nancycowan6109]

I’m not even kidding in the least. In a week that has been heartbreaking here for my family in MN, watching olives being harvested and turned into oil is like a balm. Thank you for taking my mind off of such disappointment to something truly worthy of calm. ❤️

[@skyeseaborn1170]

I felt the same way. It was a healing balm to grief. You remind me there is good to hope, and work for.

[@barbiec4312]

We share your shock, sadness, anxiety and fear. You aren’t alone. Hang in there. ❤

[@MSScalzi]

A very difficult week here in California, too. Your videos bring sunshine into our lives THANK YOU so much !!

[@suzetteduplessis5409]

How special this year's harvest was, seeing all the volunteers perform their duties, the olive trees + the sea + the companionship + friendships built, the prepared lunch yummy 😋😋 etc etc and then the end harvest result... your special liquid gold. God willing I really want to share in future harvesting. Keep well & much caring. 🥰

[@diannellel2417]

I liked your music selections for this episode! It was fun to see another of your olive harvests!

[@terrylcarlsellscoastal]

I love how your daughter eats everything! Kids can be very fussy

[@christinewenner1508]

Enjoyed the harvest and your community.

[@ef5842]

Beautiful trees. I loved watching how you pick and sort the olives. Luche is so sweet about everything you do.

[@navigatingwithnana]

A heartfelt thank you from Colombia, South America for allowing me to so beautifully celebrate my Italian roots every Sunday! 🇨🇴♥🇮🇹

[@kathifoynm]

I enjoyed last season’s harvest so much and this season was superb. I could tell that Sara’s knowledge from her course in agriculture has paid off in dividends for your harvest. Thank you for sharing the harvest and oil production with us. Your zest for life and community came through the screen. Life is indeed beautiful and love conquers all. ❤

[@ciaobella8963]

To watch your business and community grow brings me great joy. The color of your olive oil is truly golden. Here in the Northern Tuscany and eastern Liguria region, the oil has more of a green tinge to it. I will never forget the first time I tasted olive oil from the tap at the frantoio on fresh bread. We put a little Mediterranean sea salt on the oiled bread which I loved too. There are special moments in life we will always remember with a joyful heart. May God continue to bless you all, and your second daughter who is getting her strength now from your strength Sara. Love and hugs. 😘💜

[@biddiemutter3481]

Well done for getting the olives to the mill so quickly and completing the harvest🎉 eye protection next year 😊

My mouth is watering watching the precious olive oil,as pure as it can be. This is a blessing.

[@51marshmellow]

What a truly wonderful second year of harvesting with a growing family of friends from both near and far. It’s a joy to witness the camaraderie , so interesting to see the two different outcomes from the different olives and to feel everyones satisfaction with the outcome of such intense hard work with a very tight deadline. My only wish is that I could have joined you too. Congratulations dear Sara, Luca and Luce and everyone on a job well done! The golden prize looked so delicious I could practically taste it here in New England.👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼🎉😍😘😘😘😘, Ellen
