General
Abandoned Grove is a mission-driven company that rescues abandoned olive groves to produce sustainable, premium, and grove-specific extra virgin olive oil to improve lives and protect the planet. Exceptional extra virgin olive oil is the vehicle to drive change.
One Tree, One Bottle is an initiative rooted in respect for the natural output of a Tuscan olive tree, typically yielding two bottles of extra virgin olive oil per harvest.
Your purchase supports a tree to produce one exceptional bottle of micro-regional and grove-specific premium extra virgin olive oil for you and another bottle that stays with the local producer to help foster a thriving ecosystem that supports community, countering grove abandonment and preserving our environment for future generations.
This initiative ensures the highest quality extra virgin olive oil and sustainable production and benefits local farmers.
Since our inception, we are still the only extra virgin olive oil crafted with you, your kitchen, and the planet in mind. Our methods and business model prioritize quality over quantity, allowing our olive farmers, millers, and tasters to focus on their passion. Each bottle reflects the characteristics of the specific grove, the season, and the community. Abandoned Grove has never retailed, understanding the care needed in transport and distribution. We ensure the highest quality through strict production practices overseen by world-renowned experts and handled by professionals. This dedication ensures that we and our customers, benefit from their expertise and love for their craft.
Abandoned Grove has rejuvenated over 5,052 trees, sustained 64 acres of olive groves, involved 56 social integration participants, completed 14 successful premium harvests, and benefited 13 local businesses and artisans.
