Together with a close-knit team of around 15 people, they look after everything from the olive groves and mill to bottling and quality control. During the harvest, the team grows to around 30–40 people as seasonal workers join to help bring in the olives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe family cares for around 4,000 of their own olive trees and also works closely with local growers across Lesvos, helping showcase the unique character of the island's olive oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith their own olive groves, modern olive mill and bottling facilities, Papadellis oversees every step of the journey - from tree to bottle - ensuring every drop reflects the quality and tradition of Lesvos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eElOlivo review:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you know by now, we're all about quality, flavour and extra virgin olive oil.
