The harvest for the 2013-2014 period began last November 4th by the workers of the Establishment and Services of Assisted Work EPIS, an establishment of the Departmental Association for the Safeguarding of Children to Adults (ADSEA 06).
The ESAT Professional Space for Social Integration (EPIS) of ADSEA 06 welcomes 145 adult workers with disabilities, deficiencies, or mental health issues, in the various workshops located in the commune of Cantaron.
The park spreads over 15 hectares on the Saint Philippe hill, in the former agricultural estate of the d’Estienne d’Orves family, a testimony to a landscape and essences characteristic of the hills of Nice. This park includes an olive grove with a surface of 5.4 hectares, containing more than 400 olive trees. The olive grove is maintained by the workers of the ESAT of Cantaron.
Maintenance includes the pruning of the trees, the harvesting of the olives, bottling after crushing in a traditional mill, as well as the various successive stages of corking, labeling, and boxing. The production is distributed during events throughout the year.
