Harvest 2024:
Made in Palestine
Made in Palestine
In a year that has tested the spirit of Palestinians everywhere, our olive trees stand as silent witnesses to both our challenges and our unwavering resilience. Despite the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the brutal and unimaginable attacks in the West Bank, and the hardships endured within occupied Palestine, we return to our groves with determination and hope.
This harvest season carries special meaning – it's more than just gathering olives. It's our way of showing that our roots run as deep as the ancient trees we tend. Each olive picked, each drop of oil pressed, reinforces our connection to the land that has nourished generations.
We dedicate this harvest to Palestinians worldwide – those who wake up to our hills and those who carry them in their hearts from afar. Through this collective, we hope to bridge the distance, sharing the taste of home with every Palestinian yearning for connection to their heritage, and with every supporter who believes in the power of preservation through cultivation.
This is our love letter to Palestine, bottled in liquid gold, sent from our groves to your homes.
We are a Palestinian family-owned collective deeply rooted in our local community, committed to sharing the stories and exquisite products of our farmers.
Our mission is to connect with local farmers, and businesses all around Palestine and share our rich heritage with the world.
Our farmers hail from the vibrant lands of the West Bank and northern Palestine, bringing forth the essence of our rich cultural heritage.
Our pricing reflects the current realities of olive oil production in Palestine. Due to ongoing access restrictions, farmers can only reach about 50% of their olive trees, significantly reducing harvest capabilities. Additionally, many farmers are unable to safely reach their groves due to the current situation.
This limited access, combined with high local demand for olive oil in Palestinian households, creates natural scarcity. Palestinian families traditionally stock olive oil as a crucial pantry staple, and this year's circumstances have intensified local consumption needs.
Our pricing ensures:
Fair compensation for farmers taking risks to harvest
Support for traditional Palestinian agriculture
Sustainable production despite limited access
Quality maintenance despite challenging conditions
We believe in transparency about these factors affecting our pricing, as they reflect the real situation on the ground in Palestine.
Our order model operates on a Rise Up principle, ensuring we pay above-market rates to support and uplift the local economy. When you support us, and purchase one of the olive oil we have in stock, you help us continue our mission and ensure people of Palestine have a strong economical source.
Every step of our supply chain is built upon Palestinian businesses and individuals, fostering trust and solidarity within our community.
Our inventory is exported to three partnering warehouses in the US, UK, and Germany, enabling us to reach customers worldwide.
Our inventory is stored in prime condition to preserve the quality, ensuring the olive oil purchased to arrive as if it was harvested just now.
Expect swift delivery as we aim to ship out all products within 1-2 business days, ensuring you receive your treasures promptly.
