Poor olive harvest in Umbria
The farmer we normally get oil from has told us he has no olives this year. According to the newspaper the production in Umbria and in the regions to the north has been pretty poor this year while the south has been very good.
Has anyone else been to buy olive oil and what are you paying for a litre?

We help with the neighbours harvest. This year 16 quintale which he was not overly disappointed in compared to recent years. We don't buy olio; it's our wages for helping.
