How does gifting work?

Gifting a tree is a one-year, non-renewing experience that counts towards our total grove's tree count. We handle everything, including a personalized message, digital certificate, extra virgin olive oil, and a handcrafted olive wood nameplate.

What does the recipient receive?

They receive two bottles of extra-virgin olive oil from the grove’s harvest, a digital certificate, and a handcrafted olive wood nameplate placed on their tree. Full membership access is included, which allows them to purchase additional oil and receive invitations to exclusive events and travel opportunities.

When do you notify them of their gift?

You choose the notification date. On that day, the recipient will receive a digital message inviting them to claim their tree and access Abandoned Grove. Suppose you prefer to hand it in person. In that case, a downloadable card is available as soon as you place the order, allowing the recipient to activate it immediately if they choose.

When do they receive their gifted oil?

Gifts made anytime before December 31 qualify for the latest harvest. We harvest between mid-October and November, and oil is typically delivered early in the new year. That said, the recipient can choose to receive their oil later in the year if they prefer. The key is ordering by December 31 to secure that year’s harvest.

What happens if the gift isn’t renewed?

If neither giver nor recipient renews, the tree is released back to the community and made available to others.

What if the recipient is already a member?

No problem. The gift is added as a one-time tree for that harvest year. Their existing membership stays active and unchanged.

Do you offer corporate gifts or bulk orders?

Yes. For corporate, event, or large gifting needs, please reach out directly. We offer dedicated Grove Custodian tier options for groups and teams.

What This Gift Is

Name: Gift a Rescued Olive Tree
Brand: Abandoned Grove
SKU: GIFT-VER-TREE
Price: 255.0 CAD
Availability: InStock

Gifting a rescued olive tree is an act of care that produces something tangible and rare.

Each tree is part of a living, biodiverse ecosystem that has been restored.

The gift begins a living relationship shaped by place, season, and time.

By gifting a tree, you help restore quality, community, and life to the groves while giving someone a direct connection to that work and to the exceptional extra virgin olive oil it produces.

What Happens Next

The Tree Enters Care

The tree is photographed, geo-tagged, and marked with a handcrafted olive-wood nameplate.

A Relationship Begins

The recipient receives seasonal updates from the grove, letters from the harvest, and invitations as the year unfolds.

The Harvest Follows

After harvest, two bottles of extra virgin olive oil from that tree are shared as an expression of its care.

Why This Is Different

This is not a bottle chosen from a shelf.

It is participation in a living agricultural system, limited by real trees, real land, and real seasons.

When a grove is fully cared for, gifting closes until more land can be restored.
