Our premier California extra virgin olive oil begins in our olive groves. And these trees grow incredible antioxidant-rich fruit. And from the moment our olive trees are planted to the day we hand harvest them for cold-press production, we know that only the best care will produce the finest fresh-squeezed extra virgin olive oils.
So we work hard to ensure that our products are the perfect marriage of good for you & good to you. Our Southern California olive ranch is on the same latitudinal line as the Mediterranean. And this provides us with the ideal climate & wonderful, warming sunlight to grow the finest olives & produce some of the most exquisite olive oil in the world.
Here at Temecula Olive Oil Company we take extraordinary measures to farm our family-owned groves in a regenerative manner with Kai-Zen agriculture practices. And we avoid pesticides or weed abatement practices that could be harmful to the environment. Additionally, we are proud to work with many family growers who are as passionate about the quality of their fruit and the resulting oil as we are. Because these relationships allow us to create all of the high-quality, proprietary blends that you have come to know and love.
