What Fair Trade Olive Oil Means

Our olives come from a tight-knit farming region where fair wages, community investment, and traditional growing practices are part of everyday life. Fair Trade helps us protect what matters: people, land, and heritage.

Our Groves

Near Milas, on Türkiye’s Aegean coast. In our sun-drenched grove, the earthy, woodsy scent fills the air as we tend each tree with care and respect for the land that sustains us.

Our Trees

One variety. Our trees are Memecik, nurtured by sun, soil, and time, and our oil is single variety and single-origin, with nothing blended in.

Our Harvest

Ready when the olives are. Our harvest is a practice in patience, guided by nature and carried out by the skilled hands of those who know exactly when the fruit is at its peak.

Our Olives

Process over perfection. After harvest, our olives go straight to our own mill to be cold pressed. The oil is filtered the same day it’s pressed and stored under nitrogen.
