In today's feature we're talking about olive oil,
French people use a lot of it. How about you?
Yes, a lot! I love it!
In the cosmetics industry too. It's not doing badly there.
We use a lot in France, we don't produce much,
you'll be telling us why and what the problem with that is.
So to support oil producers in France,
you can do your bit with one of today's ideas.
Today I'll tell you about: ADOPT AN OLIVE TREE
Olive-growers are offering this. You adopt a tree, not a person!
Of course... not a person! Domaine des Opies
have set up the scheme in Eyguières, Bouches-du-Rhône.
Two friends founded this olive farm a few years ago.
They began growing olives in a grove with absolutely
no chemicals, going even further than organic farming!
To support them, you can sponsor an olive tree
for €84 a year. You get a certificate
with your tree's photo, GPS coordinates and number.
Can you visit it? You can go to the grove
and see your olive tree, take part in the harvest,
cut off some branches. Do what you want, it's yours.
And you receive a little box containing oil from
your tree's olives, and a little branch. Every year?
It's renewable for €84 a year!
