Plant / Oil History: In ancient Greece olive oil was rubbed all over the body by athletes. It was also used for religious rituals, soap making, medicines, fuel for oil lamps and skin care application. The olive tree originated in the Mediterranean basin in what is now modern Turkey. Neolithic people collected wild olives in the 8th millennium B.C. Cultivation of olives was possibly in the Asia Minor in the 6th millennium B.C. or in the Mesopotamian Fertile Crescent in the 3rd millennium. It was also possible it was first cultivated in Crete or in 4500 B.C. by Canaanites. Egyptians imported olive oil from Syria, Crete and Canaan before 2, 000 B.C. and it was used as an important part of commerce and wealth. Over the years, it also became a symbol for wisdom, purity, peace and glory. The Europeans had brought the olive to their colonies beginning in the 16th century and its cultivation began in California, Chile, Mexico, Peru and Argentina. Today it is believed that there are around 800 million olive trees with the majority being found in Mediterranean countries.

Plant / Oil Description: olive oil is produced through physical means and has had no chemical treatments. The olive tree is a small evergreen tree or shrub that is native to the Mediterranean, Africa and Asia. It grows up to 15 meters in height and its leaves are silvery green and oblong in shape. The leaves are also 4-10 cm long and 1-3 cm wide. The trunk of the olive tree is generally twisted and knarled. It’s flowers are small and white and spring from the axils of the leaves. Its fruit is a small drupe that is 1-2.5 cm long. It is thin fleshed and smaller in wild plants than it is in the cultivated variety. The olives which are found in these drupes are harvested at the green stage or can be left to ripen to become the black olive, which is actually a deep purple. For the first 7 seven years of life, however, the tree is unproductive afterwards increasing in productivity and between 35 to 150 years it reaches maturity and full production. After 150 years the tree ages with incredible productivity for centuries or even thousands of years.

Plant Habitat: It can stand temperatures below 6 C or 21 F in the winter. It can also endure very long periods of drought during the summer. It thrives in areas of between 14-16 inches of annual rainfall and a dry summer with temperatures remaining around 40 C or 104 F. They tend to grow best in the Mediterranean climate with its wet and cool winter and dry, very hot summers.

Storage: Store in a dark, cool place for up to 6 months or store in the refrigerator for a year. Be sure to keep it in an airtight, sealed container.
