Lovely post! I sure wish I had an olive tree after reading this. Great photos too.

What is that tool he is carrying over his shoulder, the spiky one?

Thank you so much @owasco!
These are the sticks with which we harvest the olives. The spiky head (called urchin) is pulsating and helps to get the fruit detached from the tree without hurting it. I hope the description helps a bit :)
