Help To ID Olive Tree? (forum)

LostOlive starts with ...
Hi.
I am very lost on this.
If someone could help me identify this type of olive tree it would really be helpful.
I have about 200 of these on some land recently purchased in California and I am not certain what to do with them.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You in advance for any help.

Pictures would help and are they mature and fruiting well, but my best advice would be to find other olive growers in your region and ask them for advice their is probably some regional olive growing group that support each other. I find volunteering to help others pick olives is great socially and informative. Also ask the previous owners the varieties and perhaps there is a planting map somewhere. Olives are generally relatively low maintenance compared with other fruit trees but they will still need pruning and other care. Good Luck

Holly Cow! you have 200 olive trees that big mabye they could be logged "Joke". The round fruit is possibly Manzanillo a common table olive. Get some advice from local olive experts and dept of Agriculture.

@allybanana, "logged" or for firewood, hate to just chip them into mulch.....
I know that sounds terrible, I am trying to find someone who wants them and to determine if I should beg for takers or charge a price. Do these transplant well??
I counted again, only, 177 trees.
