How does it work?How does it work?

1. Adopt an olive tree of the Arbequina variety and choose a name for it.

2. Select a date and a delivery address for your oil shipment (if you want, you may send it to someone else as a gift). You will receive a box with two 2.5 litre tins of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

3. Every season you can choose to stop the maintenance of your olive tree voluntarily, you do not enter into any long-term commitment.

Thanks to your adoption we will be able to take care of your olive tree in a way that respects the natural environment (both plant and animal) and create valuable agricultural jobs.
The final price including the adoption as well as the shipping of your oil to Spain (change) is 62,81 € per year. Click here to adopt an olive tree.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - FAQ

Can I try the olive oil first?

Yes. Click here to order a tin of Extra Virgin Olive Oil if you want to try it before adopting it.

For how long can I keep my olive tree?

For as long as you’d like. The olive trees we offer for adoption were planted in 1999 and still have a long life ahead of them. If for any reason your olive tree gets sick or dies before the age of 25, we will try to replace it with another one of the same age and variety.

How do you harvest the olives?

We harvest the olives from all our olive trees during the day (between 8:00 and 18:00) so as not to affect the fauna that rests in our olive grove at night, especially migratory birds. El Campillo de Júlia is in a protected area surrounded by the Regajo reservoir where many animals come to drink.

Will I receive the oil only from my own olive tree?

No. The olive harvest is done all at once. The olives are then crushed and the oil is produced and decanted in an oil mill tank.

There is no agricultural logic in collecting only the olives from your tree. If for whatever reason, the harvest from your tree is scarce, we ensure your oil production, as we mitigate the risks by sharing the olive production of the whole olive grove.

So the answer to this question is NO, although most probably some drop comes from the olives of your olive tree.

Will I be able to visit my tree?

Yes, of course you can! We'd be happy to give you a tour of the farm and show you your tree. It is essential that you let us know at least 7 days in advance to organize your visit through this form. Keep in mind that the daily work in the field makes it impossible for us to attend unexpected or unscheduled visits.

How much olive harvest does an olive tree produce?

The olive trees that we offer for adoption are currently planted in a "trellis" plantation, bush type. The new olive trees that we will continue to plant will be planted leaving more distance between them. The normal production that we foresee when we have the desired planting framework will be about 25 kg of olives per tree, which is equivalent to about 5 litres of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Can I gift someone an olive tree?

Yes, at the end of the adoption process of your olive tree you will be able to choose the delivery address of the Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) harvest. You can also optionally include a dedication so that it reaches the person you want to give inside the box along with the 2 cans of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

When will I see the first picture of my olive tree and when will the name tag be attached?

From the moment you decide to adopt a tree, we will give you access to your garden from where you can follow its growth. Throughout the year, before the olive harvest, we will take a photo of your olive tree and if it is the first season, we will hang the plaque engraved with the name you have chosen.

When will the maintenance charge be processed for the second season?

The maintenance of the tree will be charged automatically before the beginning of each season (during the month of November).

Remember that each season you can stop the maintenance of your tree voluntarily, you have no commitment to keep it.

Are you certified with the Organic Farming seal?

In 2020 we have started the certification process and we have to wait 4 years until we can include the Organic Farming seal.
We are going to cultivate this farm under the same cultivation philosophy that we have developed in Naranjas del Carmen and that you can read about here.
