My name is Alexandra Trikili-
On my visits to Austria I was always carrying some liters of our olive oil to give to my family and friends. Because of the fact that people were demanding more and more our olive oil we were thinking to start an official business with our olive oil.
ELEONES ZAKROS (engl. Olive grows of Zakros)

Our restaurant is open only in the summer time, so we have all the time in the winter to be occupied with our olive trees.
Our olive grows are situated in Estern Crete.The small village of Zakros s lying about 500 meters above the sea,the best conditions for growing live trees.The ground is calcareus and steril and the climete [very hot bay the day, cold nights] does its own for to make this area to have the Best condition for olive trees.In this part of Crete there is otindustryorpollutionandonly a few of the masses of tourists, visiting Crete every year, is finding the way over here.
Most of our olive trees is more than 100 years old, and there is not a big
Difference between the production of our olive oil then and nowdays.
We learned the way of harvesting the olives from our parents and grandparents and they from their parents and so on.It is a trandition
That all the family is involved in the harvest,even the smallest members
Get a job to do.
