From time to time, we host olive-related events at our farm and you can find more details here or on our Facebook page

It’s time for the disbursement of our Olives to Oil Community Pressing event.

In conjunction with the Old Church on the Hill, we’d like to thank all the participants for your contributions, and patience, while the oil was quietly settling, and we’d like to invite you all to attend the distribution party.

Bottles will be provided, just bring yourselves.
