Description of Piece:
We are harvesting olives from the trees we take care of all year. My father is hitting
olives with a stick and olives fall down around the tree and my brother stands on a
ladder. My mother is cleaning olives from twigs and leaves. My sister is preparing
tomatoes in frying pan (it was very delicious). Our country is famous for olives, we pick
them in October and November. This crop is very important for making olive oil or in
pickling.
