#DidYouKnow that an olive tree twists clockwise over its lifetime? 🕊🌞 Some believe that this is because of earth’s gravity force, others think it is due to the rotation of the planet, the direction of the wind, or perhaps that it takes on the helix shape of DNA. 🧬 Whatever the reason, these beautiful twists reinforce the tree’s trunk, making it thick and sturdy, and enabling them to stand undisturbed for centuries or even millenia. 🥹🫶🏽 Puglia is home to 30-40 million olive trees and the region produces around 40% of Italy’s olives.
