Where to begin. Niko met me in a little town about 4 hours away from Villa Taos. The drive was beautiful and to my suprise Crete has snow capped mountains, who knew! Niko quit his day job as a CEO of a large oil producer in Athens when he longed to move back home to Crete. He started Crete O’live a cooperative oil production company giving small farmers an outlet for their olives that was sustainable, regulated and a higher quality processing. It is an amazing program that uses everything, even the waste to power the mill.
