"رحلة إلى المزرعة زيتون / Trip to the Olive Farm" by Ben Schmida
During the fall semester I was lucky enough to be taken on a daytrip to an olive farm in the north of Jordan with Amideast. It was a great experience spending time with a Jordanian family on their olive farm, helping them harvest olives as well as enjoying a lovely home cooked meal with them. After spending time at the olive farm, we visited an olive oil factory and got to see how the process of making fresh olive oil is made. Below are some of the photos I captured during this experience.
Benjamin Schmida is a junior at American University studying on the Area and Arabic Studies program in Amman, Jordan for an academic year.
