Скачать или смотреть When We Bought This House in Italy, We Didn't Expect 200 Olive Trees

Behind our old farmhouse in Umbria lies a one-hectare olive grove abandoned for more than 20 years.
In this episode we begin bringing it back to life.

Over time the land disappeared under wild growth, brambles and tangled branches. Many of the olive trees were still alive — hidden, neglected, and struggling for light.

In this episode we begin the slow process of bringing the grove back to life.
Cutting through years of overgrowth, pruning the old trees, and caring for them after decades without attention.

Little by little the grove begins to open again.
More than 200 olive trees are waiting to breathe.
This is only the beginning.
