The beginnings of Olive Me
My love affair with olives began by hating olives.
Then, I went to Europe and, with my sister Marie as my guide, I tasted the bliss of sliced olives with a baguette and a glass of wine. When I returned home I was faced with....briny, salty, pimento stuffed olives...
So, I began preparing olives for myself and
shared them with my friends and family. They raved about them, so, on a trial basis, I approached the Strathcona Farmers Market with three flavours of olives: Californian, DaVinci, and Greek.
I was accepted and on my first day at the market I sold out in two hours. I knew then that I had found some fellow olive lovers! And Olive Me took off!
