Real Extra Virgin Olive Oil Is Not Infinite.

Quality is limited by land, season, and care. When those limits are respected, something rare becomes possible.

Everything Grows from Care

Participation in Abandoned Grove begins with membership. From there, involvement grows through the care of living trees and the system that protects them.

Each option below includes membership and offers a different way to enter the work.

Guard a Tree

Begin your membership by caring for one rescued olive tree. Oil from its grove is released to you after harvest.

Gift a Rescued Olive Tree

Begin a year of membership for someone else, rooted in the care of one rescued olive tree and its harvest.

Guard a Family of Trees

Begin your membership by sustaining four rescued trees. Receive a broader expression of harvest each year.

Michael Maloney Grove - Abandoned Grove

Root Membership

The foundation of every guardianship, sustaining the grove and unlocking future tree care.
Begin Here

Participation is limited by real trees in real groves. When trees are fully under care, access closes.

Life in the grove

From the moment a tree enters care, members are part of the season as it unfolds.

You receive updates from the groves, letters from the harvest, and insight into the decisions that shape each year.

Gatherings, tastings, and moments at the table emerge from this shared work.

This is a living community, renewed each year through patience, craft, and time.
