Learn about the Olive Harvest Adventure - Saturday, May 10

Join me on Saturday morning May 10th, from 11:00 – noon, to learn about my upcoming Olive Harvest Adventure (October 21-28, 2014) in Umbria, Italy.  Meet me at the Institute for Western Civilization, 10060 Bubb Road, Cupertino, in the library.  Coffee and homemade biscotti will be served.

Each year, during the olive harvest, guests become “Italian for a Week” and spend a blissful time in a magical landscape of ancient Umbrian olive groves, medieval hilltop villages and undulating vineyards, while staying in a gorgeous Italian villa in the Umbrian countryside.  Here you can slow down and experience the true Italian lifestyle – the meals, the wine, the olive oil, the art, the people. The Olive Harvest Adventure brings you Umbria and Tuscany on a plate (and in a bottle) and invites you to relish the pleasures and treasures of Central Italy at an unhurried pace.  You'll take home the memories of a lifetime!  

On May 10, I'll share photos and videos from previous tours and offer tips for using olive oil from my book, "The Passionate Olive".  You'll have the opportunity to learn more about the tour, ask questions about my favorite subject (olive oil!) and if you're interested, sign up for this memorable tour.  And, you'll also get the recipe for my mother’s famous biscotti!

Ciao, Carol
