Olive harvest in the Tuscan hills

Care for a Restored
Olive Tree in Tuscany

Share in the extraordinary extra virgin olive oil the grove yields each harvest.

Real Extra Virgin Olive Oil is Not Infinite.

Guardians help restore traditional olive groves and keep them alive in harvest.

Today, more than 5,000 abandoned olive trees have been restored to harvest across our Tuscan groves.

How Guardianship Works

Begin with a Tree

Guardianship begins with a tree in one of our restored Tuscan groves. From there, your involvement grows with the life of the grove and the seasons that shape it.

Care for the Grove

Your guardianship supports the work that keeps these groves alive: pruning, soil care, harvest, and the patient craft that makes real extra-virgin olive oil possible. This is the patient work behind every harvest.

Life in the Grove

As the season unfolds, guardians are part of the life of the grove. Letters from the harvest, updates from the field, gatherings, tastings, and moments at the table emerge from this shared work. Each year brings its own harvest, and the extraordinary olive oil that comes from it.

Limited by Nature

Each grove contains a finite number of trees. Guardianship follows the biological limits of the land and the health of the grove. When every tree has found its guardian, the grove closes and its harvest remains with those who care for it.

The Groves

These are the landscapes where guardians take part in the life of the grove, season after season.
