Wild Olives are awesome! .
Also known as olive, brown olive, Indian olive, Olienhout and Iron Tree. They can be found from South Africa through Africa, the Middle East, Pakistan, India to China.
.
In Australia they’re not Native, and were introduced in the 1800’s as they grow quickly, make a great hedge plant and cheap alternative to fencing for livestock and also make great rootstock for ‘edible’ olives.
.
They’re now declared a noxious weed, as these hardy trees invade bushland and shade out and suppress native plants. These trees grow like wildfire, the birds spreading their seeds around and because these olives can grow in dense shade they shove up quickly and take over.
.
So there’s plenty around, their wood is perfect for intricate woodwork, if you have a distiller you can make olive leaf extract (that is ridiculously expensive to buy), the olives are tiny and although the council declares them inedible, they are in fact just a mini olive and taste exactly like the giant olives you find around Spain. They’re also eaten the world over so why not at my dinner table too.
.
Do I know exactly how to brine these miniature pea sized olives? Nope. Am I going to try anyway? Yep.
Have I harvested a ridiculous amount already? Yep. Am I going back for more? You betcha!!
.
If I wasn’t over excited about olives enough, these Handy Snippers from @hoselinkaustralia have me doing a happy dance as well. They’ve quickly become my all time favourite snippers. The quality is superb and yet they’re small and light making them easy use and carry around- especially on foraging adventures. And they actually snip to perfection which means they won’t be ending up on the broken secateur graveyard pileI am one happy gardener. Thank you #hoselinkaustralia #hoselink
Whilst we are waiting for the next harvest, it was time to get cracking today with brine curing our first batch of harvested olives

Nach über einer Woche bekochen lassen wollte sie selbstgemachte Pasta. Mann tut was man kann. Kirschtomaten, grüne Bohnen und ein paar schwarze Oliven zusammen mit frischen Kräutern und Pasta machen sie glücklich.

My yummy salad I made for lunch. Along with salmon and sweet potato with beans and mushrooms (not shown in the photo).
A mom got to think in easy and healthy meals.
