Some Things
Can Only Come
From Being Part
of the Harvest.
Follow the season. Experience extra virgin olive oil as it is meant to be.
Extra virgin olive oil, from a tree and grove you know.
Choose Your Connection to the Grove.
Some follow their tree by name, through the seasons.
Others belong to the whole grove, tasting each release as it arrives.
We Ask Nothing of a Tree Beyond What It Gives Naturally.
Two bottles a year. Rarely more.
Every tree in the grove is tended to the same standard, whether it is connected to a Guardian or held in reserve. When the available trees are spoken for, the grove closes.
It Started With a Single Taste.
Fil Bucchino spent years learning what made it possible, in the groves, at the mill, and at the judging table.
He came to understand that the oil could not survive the traditional path of distribution, shelf life, and constant availability without losing what made it extraordinary.
The answer was membership, first built around a single tree.
“Your olive oil almost ended my marriage. It is under lock and key now.”
“Cracked open the first bottle today. We were pouring it over everything, licking off of spoons.”
“How is it possible that oil can make you feel like this?”
