Synopsis
Carol Drinkwater's bestselling book, The Olive Farm, told the lyrical tale of her real-life romance with partner Michel and the abandoned Provencal olive farm which they fell in love with and bought. The Olive Season begins with their realization of another dream, a tropical island wedding: Returning to France, they find ever-reliable Arab gardener Quashia is leaving to marry off his youngest son.
It is a bad blow. To gain the coveted AGC rating, Carol needs to plant a further 250 olive trees. Now, pregnant and often unassisted, she will have to do the bulk of the farm work. She struggles to find a water diviner to check for sources on the property. Then there is the matter of locating an elusive beekeeper who she hopes will place hives on the land in exchange for honey. And the harvest season is fast approaching...
