But it's not all grapevines here—you can switch your fruit focus to olives at Round Pond. This small farm grows five varieties of Italian olives and three types of Spanish olives. Within an hour of being handpicked (sometime between October and February), the olives are crushed in the mill on the property to produce pungent, peppery oils that are later blended and sold. Call a few days in advance to arrange a tour of the mill followed by an informative tasting, during which you can sample several types of oil, both alone and with Round Pond's own red wine vinegars and other tasty foods.
