What an interesting video on olive oil … as a consumer of olive oil … i simply did not know what it takes to make the oil and now I will only buy the extra virgin oil. I really appreciated the love and knowledge George shared with you and us about his passion. This was such an incredible experience and now I want to go out and get some aromatic olive oil! Thank you for making George’s first experience on social media a special one! You shone a very bright light on this family and their pride and passion- thank you
a star is born ❤ love all of George's information
George you did a wonder job of showing us your love and passion for your olive field and the product that you make must be amazing to taste and use. thank you for putting out loving vibes into the world.🌸
I love George! What a special place his farm is and his passion for his work is amazing. So glad you went back to create these videos. We can all learn about and appreciate true olive oil production. ❤
Love George’s passion and his advise!
We can see how passionate he is about the land and olives.
😅 I love what he said about the mouses. Lol. What a great experience you are having! George is fabulous.

@getthemargarita how can I order and get the name of his Olivia oil?? How one get in touch with George??
I appreciated learning from George about olive oil harvest and differences between types of oil I will be looking forward to next videos about pressing,bottling,etc 👏👏
Awww George seems like such a good guy! So willing & passionate to share the olive oil harvesting process.
You can see from your video that George is a kind, conscientious farmer. I’d love to buy some of his oil. Thank you Arielle
George is my new hero.
George is A-DOR-A-BLE! 😍 I can see how and why you love it there. I would too! What you said in your other video about the kindness and generosity of George and his wife and the entire community is so heart-warming. It's wonderful to know (with all the other 'stuff' going on in the world) that there are people and places like this. I look forward to seeing more. Good job!
It was wonderful to hear George speak his passion! He did a very good job of explaining what goes on in the groves! Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for this wonderful video. George is a real treasure. Listening to George is learning the secret to a life well lived. His is not a life of avoidance. It is a life of acceptance & celebration. He celebrates his ancestors--the human variety & the botanical variety. I listen to him & I wonder how so many people have lost their way. They know & seem to care little for their ancestors, their history, their roots. They want to move at a faster & faster pace & they want to avoid the normal rhythms of life which include depression, grief, being in sync with the rhythms of all of the natural varieties of life that surround them. They look for answers in all of the wrong places. And they have no idea they are doing this. Thank you George. You inspire me and you show me why life is a precious gift.
Very informative & enjoyable to watch. George is a natural on camera, intelligent and steady. Well done all around!
George. You are a natural teacher. Well done.
Your videos are wonderful and know you put a lot of work into them. Thank you for sharing this experience. Paul from Toronto
Loved this video I learned so much. George is such an interesting person and well grounded. His English is incredible love the accent. Love your transition to this kind of video, can’t wait to see the next one. Have a super week………🤗🇨🇦
its awesome to see someone so passionate about their work/hobby! i hope to one day live like George - doing what i love.
I’m so glad I came back to watch this video. I enjoyed it very much, and George is social media natural 😊
I love George’s passion for his work. His outlook on nature and organic products is spot on. Thank you for sharing this interesting information! ~Dana
While you think that you're lucky to receive their hospitality, they are equally lucky to have you film and bring awareness to their endeavour. It is so wonderful to see behind the scenes what goes on from start to finish! And how amazing to have passionate farmers who love what they do. I've tasted Cretan olive oil and hope to one day get my hands on George's (Giorgos) oils too. Really enjoying your Greek adventures Arielle- keep sharing please!
George is a wonderful educator. Gives me a new appreciation for the olive oil I use everyday.
Very informative! George's English is quite good and he did a great job.
Fascinating look at olive oil production. Clearly super hard work! George is charming - engaging and incredibly informative. I loved learning about how to tell the age of the tree and the origin of "Greek" basil.
Great video! We live in Northern California and am inspired to grow olives in our field 😊 thank you Arielle & George! He was great. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
What a great lesson! Thank you Arielle and George.
Thank you for the fresh content! I feel like I was there with you learning all things olive oil, which I love and use frequently!!
Great advice from George.
This guy is so passionate and charismatic. No wonder you went there again. How much longer are you there?

I learned so much! Really fascinating 😊. Thank you!
@getthemargarita what a fabulous little video and such a delight to glimpse behind the scenes of a true artisan and passionate producer. George ‘s love of and enthusiasm for what he does was such a joy to watch. ( Confession: I am a bit of an olive oil snob because the ‘ good stuff’ is so full of amazing benefits to our health.) Thanks for this great vlog.
Great information! Thank you both for taking the time to create this video.
Great job George! The world is very lucky to have you & your very special work. Amazing video. Your channel is really informative, interesting ❤
I love George!
I enjoyed this video immensely. Thank you for taking the time to educate us. ❤️
George is so amazing! I loved his life advice and the oils sound amazing!! Loved the video 😊
I loved this video...I learned so much! And George is delightful❤
Such an interesting video. I understand the value of this wonderful ancient oil a little better now.
I’m sure it’s hard work, but what a wonderful charming learning experience. Tyfs 😊
This is such a great video! George is so interesting to listen to. It's a whole philosophy. I'm looking forward to finding out how we can purchase his oils!
Very well done. 👏🏻 wow, harvesting is intense 💪🏻
Hiiiii, you are such an amazing tour guide, 'documentary ' maker and historian!!! You are so interesting and infectious and informative 😅 Please keep up the good work!

So awesome you are learning from such a passionate teacher. I am loving this information. I bought oil from the author lady of the book Under the Tuscan Sun and it was pricy but incredible.
Video idea: a Canadian preparing a typical French meal for a Greek family!

You are most welcome. I really enjoy all that you have been sharing. I look forward to more of your adventures beyond Paris. I hope you will continue to update us on the apartment, your activities and include Jean! You can tell you put a lot of effort into your videos. This one in particular was so well done with both your prep on the olive trees and oil production and types. Including George was just genius. The man is a natural and I am totally intrigued by his products and process. I now understand why you chose to go to Crete and help with the harvest. FYI: There is an Italian couple, Lucca and Sara (and baby daughter Luce) who have been chronicling their first harvest on their new property in Italy. Check it out sometime.

Great video! Thank you for sharing your beautiful life!
Very interesting info....I love Extra Virgin Olive Oil!!!...the aroma and the flavor it adds to food...especially sour dough bread!!! I had no idea what determined the specifics of how olives could become Extra Virgin or Virgin Olive Oil rather than just regular Olive Oil. I live in an almond orchard and years ago they used to harvest the almonds by knocking the branches of each tree with a thick rubber mallet. Fast forward to today when they now use low riding units that are air conditioned. The operator drives the unit up to each tree in the orchard, extends the arm on the unit into the tree to shake the branches to release the almonds...it was interesting to watch the process of harvesting olives...especially since I'm such a fan of Extra Virgin Olive Oil!!
That was really an interesting video, I love olive oil,and George is such a wonderful and authentic person; in fact your best video do far, always follow your heart ❤

Really enjoyed this video! I’m so fascinated by this ancient and noble trade of growing, harvesting and making of this beautiful aromatic olive oil. Thank you George for sharing your passion and expertise with us.
Great video, love George, he needs an on line store. So I know this is just a new little detour on your content, but very enjoyable. Proud for you.

Very interesting video! I'm glad I've been buying the right olive oil, haha! George seems very kind and the way he explains things shows how much he loves what he's doing and how passionate he is. It makes me want to go there and visit this whole village too! You did a wonderful job! You should consider making a second channel specifically for these kinds of videos. You could have the best of both worlds and it would surely target the right audience better. I sure would subscribe! Love, love love!
