Here's an olive farm puzzle

By Martin Kirby

A pottery mystery. We know what these are, but do you.....Summer sighs, olives begin to swell on the trees and we beaver with Mother's Garden farm work in the early or late hours, or in the shade of the house or barn. In the early afternoon we are in the office, talking olive oil to people from all over the world. Every day more and more new customers are contacting us to order fresh olive oil, so thank you. We have stock in the UK right now, so please get in touch if you would taste the difference. You can also visit our the online shop. Here's the puzzle. We have started the annual clearing of the barn in readiness for the September grape harvest (we made about 100 litres of farm wine from the little vineyard beside the house) and the all-important November olive harvest. Hidden in a dark corner behind the olive nets we found some pottery - mud vases all sealed but for one. We find these everywhere and it is a fascinating story. Do you know what they are? We will tell you later in the week. Keep well. Eat well.
