Olive oil toursPosted May 21st 2006 4:08PM by Nick VagnoniFiled under: Tastings, West Coast, Farming, Business, Fruit, Newspapers, Condiments, AmericaThe New York Times recently featured a story about the tastings and tours offered by several California olive farms. Located mostly around Napa, many of these olive-growing, olive-oil-producing farms allow visitors to check out their facilities and sample what they produce. The article also gives some insight into the blend of old and new technology involved in harvesting olives and creating a variety of nuanced oils.
