    Hi Nicki
    The olive picking seems like a lot of work/hours for someone who has no plans to sell the oil.
    Does he do it because he's retired or does he make olive oil and still go to a full time job?
    I'm curious how he maintains such a large scale operation and still earn an income doing something else.

      Hello my dear Carlo here, some times I think of myself that I am capable of working hard, and in part I believe that it is true, but what I can do is nothing compared to what my neighbor and friend Michele, him, does. and a few years older than me, but he is not retired, he has a full time job, and he has taken more than half of his vacation to pick olives, and now the holidays are over, but the olive harvest is not! So in the next month (I think) he will use his free time after work, to continue the olive harvest, Michele is really a tireless worker, I have known him since I was a child, and I have never seen him do anything but work, I know , or rather I think I know how he manages to work so hard, it is passion, an incredibly gigantic passion, which he has in the things he does, and it is also love, immeasurable love he has for his land, for traditions and for respect. of the memory of the people who like him worked so hard in that land!
      Believe me I'm not exaggerating, Michele is one of the people I know, that I respect most, and you and whoever reads this comment will know what I think of my friend Michele, more than himself, because I have never said this to Michele, maybe because we are men, and we don't need to tell each other some sweet things!
      Thank you for giving me the opportunity by answering your question to say what I think about my friend Michele!💕😘

      @@NickiPositano Oh Wow! This reply is so informative and filled with such genuine affection 💙
      You answered my question thoroughly and I'm truly encouraged by Michele's hard work and generosity, (harvesting the olives and then sharing all that oil) it really makes me think twice about my life and how selfish I can be with my time off.
      He is a good person and you are equally blessed to call each other friend and neighbour.
      Thanks so much Carlo for taking the time to reply, this has made my day 😁
      I'm sending my family's love to yours, from South Africa 💚

      Lololo you make it sound like a third world country. “Their culture?” They are Italians! Their culture says you can stay at 5 star hotels for $1,500 per night in Positano and eat in Michelin rated restaurants!! If you want high season in summer you have to book a year in advance. Just to get budget friendly $250 per night you stay down the road not in Positano. Just because someone owns a small olive orchard doesn’t make them quaint old world! Sounds like a friendly small community who are neighborly like a lot of American small towns without $1,000 a night hotels and infinity pools.

      I applaud the amazing creative support Nicki lends to local merchants, weaving the shops and wares into the film. Kayaking, always directs to the Local Guides.

I’m a park ranger and have a constant battle to get dog owners to keep their dogs on a leash. It’s always ‘ she won’t harm anyone’ , ‘he’s under control’ , ‘she loves children’….Then the next day on TV we see another child’s life wrecked after being bitten by a little cute dog that never bit anyone before. No bar of chocolate will repair their scars. So huge applause for using your platform to show the reality.

    Seeing this video and you telling us that Michael has 700 olive trees and he is only harvesting 300 and watching them hand pick the olives and carrying back in a bucket on his back makes me realize (though I knew before how olives were picked and made into olive oil) and appreciate just how much work is involved and no wonder it is so expensive. When I was on holiday in Pisciotta the lady I hired the flat from gave us some of her olive oil from her property and it was nothing like the shop bought it was absolutely delicious. So I can imagine how Michael olive oil must taste like. I am glad Rosie was not hurt badly by the dog, but a very nasty experience for her and Elizabeth. Thanks for this lovely video and have a great day Nicki and Carlos.

    ohh Rosie and elizabeth, how scary for this to happen.
    Ravello is just how I remember it, stunning! when we were there one year, we did see the stage that looks like it's floating in the clouds, no concerts the day we were there, but how magical it would be.
    olive harvest so much fun and hard work, but so worth it, to have your own oil😋 Grazie again, to you all for letting us share your everyday Positano 💗

    I loved seeing how the olive harvest goes! Even with machines that help separate the olives from the leaves, it is still very labor-intensive. And was that the momma dog of Indie? I'm so glad Rosie is ok; what a scary moment for her and you and Elisabeth. We understand that you can't always film; you DO have a life besides RUclips! So no apologies, please! 😃BTW, I didn't see that big crane in Positano. Is the parking garage complete?

    My dad worked for Texas State Commission (omission) For the Blind and the "cooking without looking" book was only 1950's recipes using Campbell's Soup and there was absolutely nothing fresh. Your new cookbook, and the one you did with Rosie and Leni are absolutely perfect for people who need, and love, great food when they have low vision.... or are little children like Leni and Rosie, with exquisite taste. We often use spiral-bind books for students with visual disabilities, so that they can use their text enlarging and audio devices to try out new recipes. Like yours!
