olive grove

Oil tree plantation

An olive grove is a cultivated area where olive trees are grown, typically in Mediterranean climates.

The trees are planted in orderly rows for harvesting olives and producing olive oil.

Olive groves have been central to Mediterranean agriculture and landscape for thousands of years: We walked through the olive grove at sunset.
