Description
In the easternmost region of Crete, the island where Olive growing started before 3500 BC, in Lasithi prefecture is where the fertile Sitia region is located, which is almost surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea. Due to its rocky soil the primary agricultural production there was based majorly on the olive, a tree that can root even on the roughest places, even where the ground structure does not favor the growth of other plants and trees.
In the heart of the Sitia region, at the settlement Ziros is where the groves of Proestakis family can be found.
