There are a lot of farms down here in Italy. Looks them up on the internet and send them an email asking if they ship. You can looks up an automatic translator to translate the webpages and post an email to them.

I really do not know - but I believe raw, unprocessed olives are most unpalatable. I wish I knew myself. Let me know if you find out. I would guess that the nearest place you would get them is France as they grow their. I have not heard of them growing in England.
Sorry I could not be more help!

This list of website offers web purchases of raw olives. I eliminated the ones that don't ship overseas
Good luck:
