TRASHY CLOTHING x OLIVE ODYSSEY: Anza 2025 Early Harvest
500ml (16.9 fl oz) | Cold-pressed in steel drums
Bright, green, and intensely fresh, this early-season Rumi olive oil comes from the hills of Anza, a small Palestinian village where farming is a shared community craft. Produced by the Anza Agricultural Cooperative Society, the oil is certified organic and hand-harvested with the collective care of dozens of local families who preserve traditional farming methods generation after generation.
Each bottle features a collaborative design with Trashy Clothing, centered around a hand-embroidered piece created by women refugees from Gaza in Jerash. Their embroidery—photographed, framed, and integrated into the label: brings Palestinian craft directly into the visual identity of the bottle. It is a piece of culture you can cook with, share, and keep.

Mohammad Zein Al-Dein is one of the few remaining independent producers in Jenin. Olive oil is his family’s legacy — the land and production center have passed through four generations, each keeping alive the techniques and patience of their ancestors. Walking his groves, you see what devotion to land truly means: trees carefully tended, harvests done by hand, and a producer who blends humility with mastery.
Farming Method: Organic practices, traditional methods, rain-fed, hand-picked.
Anza is a small Palestinian village located southwest of Jenin in the northern West Bank. Home to just under 2,000 people, the village sits on 4,740 dunams of land, with nearly a quarter dedicated to olive orchards—making olives and oil central to its identity.
Anza has been inhabited for centuries, with archaeological findings from the Byzantine, early Muslim, and Medieval periods. Historically, it was noted for its hillside location, stone-built homes, fresh wells, and thriving olive groves.
Throughout the Ottoman, British Mandate, and Jordanian eras, Anza remained a close-knit farming community. Today, under the Palestinian Authority (Area B), it continues to uphold a strong agricultural tradition, with local families and cooperatives preserving organic, heritage-based olive farming practices.
