<pre>Sadoun,

Thank you for the information and stastistics about the olive group. I am a
"lurker" who takes a lot of interest in
the information imparted by this group as my husband and I plan to be future
growers of olives, mainly for pickling.
We plan to plant next autumn in the Adelaide hills and are waiting approval from
council at present.

We have been able to glean quite a lot of detail from the different people who
are prepared to put their knowledge
and questions through this group.

Many thanks for setting it up.

Trudy Hollinshead
