About

The olive harvest in Israel is a special time. See how the tiny spring flowers blossom into green fruit, then ripen into shiny black olives. Watch the olives as they're gathered, sorted, and pressed into oil. Then celebrate Hanukkah with an Israeli family, as they use the oil to light their Hanukkah menorah. Come and enjoy the harvest of light.

Reviews

"The warm-hearted narrative is enhanced by its many photographs. Those that focus on the olive grove and oil-harvesting machinery help clarify the process. Other quieter and more intimate images depict a contemporary Israeli family enjoying their time together, busily at work and peacefully at home."
