🌿 Have you ever wondered what happens to olives from the moment they’re harvested until they become the olive oil on your table? 🌿

This time of year, growers and mills are fully immersed in turning freshly harvested olives into one of Europe’s most treasured products: extra virgin olive oil.

Curious how this transformation happens? Here’s a look at the full journey 👇

🫒 Between October and January, olives are picked with great care - either by hand or with the help of modern machinery - to protect their quality.

🚛 Once harvested, olives are swiftly delivered to the mill to avoid oxidation. They’re kept briefly in ventilated crates to preserve freshness before processing begins.

🍃 At the mill, leaves and debris are removed and the olives are washed thoroughly. This ensures that only clean, healthy fruit enters the production phase.

⛲️ Next, the olives are crushed into a paste, freeing the microscopic droplets of oil and starting their transformation into what many call “liquid gold.”

🥣 The paste is gently mixed so the oil droplets can combine. Maintaining a controlled temperature during this stage is key to protecting flavour and nutrients.

🍶 Using centrifugation, the oil is separated from the remaining water and solids, then filtered and stored in stainless steel tanks. Finally, it’s bottled - usually in dark glass or tins - to shield it from light and keep it fresh until it reaches consumers.

✨ Follow our Go2Grove project page for more insights into the people, practices and sustainable approaches shaping the Mediterranean olive oil sector. Remember to visit our website as well: https://go2grove.erasmus.site/

Recent analysis shows that individuals displaced from Ukraine are entering European labour markets more rapidly than many other refugee groups.

At the same time, Europe’s agricultural sector - especially seasonal work such as fruit, vegetable and olive harvesting - faces long-standing labour shortages and difficult working conditions.

By actively welcoming and training Ukrainian job-seekers into roles like olive-grove harvesting, we can help preserve traditional rural agricultural crafts as well as strengthen local communities.

💡 The Go2Grove project offers training, building skills and cultural exchange - everything what olive oil farmers need in one place.

🔐 It’s European Cybersecurity Month - and in today’s hyper-connected world, safety online goes beyond phishing: it’s about awareness, tools and education.

🧠 Social media overuse is a growing issue and it is closely connected with cybersecurity - but what if we empowered youth workers and young people with real tools to face it?

The project seeks to strengthen youth workers’ competences in managing problematic hyper-connectivity, provide young people with education & awareness, recognise cyber risks and foster more responsible decision-making in the digital world.

Our comprehensive project study explored young people’s social media hyperconnectivity, its risks and ways to reduce them.

🔍 What we did:
• Desk Research on youth (11-18) social media over-exposure across Europe and governmental measures
• 6 National Reports highlighting country-specific challenges and solutions
• 6 national questionnaires analyzed with insights from 198 participants – teachers, parents, psychologists, social workers and youth workers

💡 Key Findings:
• High daily use of social media
• Negative effects on mental & physical health
• Weakened family communication

Based on these insights, we developed practical, evidence-based resources to promote healthier online habits and strengthen digital resilience among young people.

🌍 The future of Mediterranean agriculture is being shaped by sustainability, collaboration, and smart farming practices.

🌱 Farmers are increasingly adopting eco-conscious methods – like regenerative agriculture, water-saving irrigation and biodiversity protection – to meet growing consumer demand for healthier and more responsible products.

📲 At the same time, digital transformation is making its mark: from soil sensors and drone monitoring to training programs that empower producers with new skills.

🤝 But there is also a human challenge: the labour shortage in the olive-growing sector. Integrating refugees and newcomers into agricultural employment can provide much-needed opportunities while strengthening local communities and addressing workforce gaps.

🫒 Tradition and innovation are not in conflict – they thrive together when communities, cooperatives and educational initiatives come together to share knowledge.
