Olivaia is a micro-producer of estate extra virgin olive oil and a grower of the historic ‘California Ripe Olive' in the Lindsay area, formerly nicked name the ‘olive capital of the world'. Olivaia started in 2012 with the purchase of a mature olive orchard with many neglected trees over 100 years old. Using their golden history as our groundwork, we immediately began rehabilitating our trees, trees that would have otherwise headed towards mulch for more lucrative crops like citrus or almonds. Inspired by history, both trees and locale, we not only re-established ties with the table olive sector but we embarked on an oil mission to put history in a bottle. After all, the orchard has been the home to many of California's original olives. Whether it is our old friends, our trees, the history in the air, or our artisanal approach, our ‘Original Lindsay Artisanal' extra virgin olive oil has been introduced to the State with immediate accolades, Gold at the California State Fair, & Best of Show at the Fresno Fair.
