Oil from our 2025 harvest. Fresh and spicy, murky green 🫒🌶️ Extra, extra virgin. The older oil from the harvest before meanwhile has a much more mild, rounded taste and a golden, transparent color. We use one or the other for different types of dishes. #olives #oliveoil #farmstr #sparta #greece #extravirgin

Taking care of the 100+ olive trees on our land turned out to be much more fun than expected. Lots of clean-up and landscaping, before step-by-step we learned the craft of producing our own olive oil ... guided by local old foxes 🦊 After four years and three harvests, we are now ready to sell our first batch of oil. A very limited amount. But one with special qualities. We like to say here that this isn't olive oil ... it's medicine. 100% natural organic farming, no pesticides used whatsoever, no plowing the fields. The trees are of a special resistant type and don't even require irrigation. The long summer period without rains makes the oil extra rich in nutrients and taste. Our oil is mostly from the Athenolia type, blended with wild acebuche olives which are super rich in polyphenols. You know, the stuff that makes you get a 100 years old. If you don't stress out 🌿 We are currently figuring out the packaging before it goes to Nostr markets 🤙🏼 Stay tuned. #introductions #offgrid #oliveoil #olives #mediterranean #greece #sparta #nature #naturalliving #decentralized #organic #farmstr

You won't see that too often: On a trip to the Parnonas Mountains in the Peloponnese, we came across this age-old olive tree submerged in water. Lots of rains here lately! #olivetree #greece #peloponnese

Life Grove is NOW on NOSTR 🏕️ The idea for Life Grove was born during many Vipassana silent retreats: "What if I just put my comfy Berlin city apartment directly into nature and live in harmony with the environment around me?" Today's technology should make that possible. So, a journey began with the astounding realization that most Western countries discourage or don't even allow you to live in harmony with nature. You can go to nature, yes, but only as a tourist. That doesn't make sense to me. A few years later Life Grove became a reality in southern Greece. Just a house in between the olive trees with a little valley and the Sea in front of you, mountains in the back. Lots of silence and no street lights around. A place where you feel the elements at every moment, a place where you adjust to the weather, where you harmonize with the plants and animals around. Totally off-grid, yet not missing anything. After four summers and winters living full-time in our tiny house, we are now charged up, ready for next steps, and feel the urge to share that experience. So, the house will soon be available for rent ;) Stay tuned here for updates of our life experience, and how we try to make Life Grove more and more sovereign and convenient. Pura vida 🌿 The future is decentralized 💜 #introductions #offgrid #olives #mediterranean #greece #sparta #nature #seaview #mountainview #tinyhouse #naturalliving #decentralized
