🌿 Oops… we missed it by a day! 🙈 🌿

Yesterday, 1 June, was International Olive Day – a celebration of one of the world’s oldest and most treasured fruits.

Did you know that olives have been cultivated for over 6,000 years? From ancient Mediterranean civilizations to modern tables around the world, the humble olive has long been valued for its flavour, nutrition, and the liquid gold it produces – extra virgin olive oil.

At Oakhurst Olives, we’re proud to be part of this incredible tradition, nurturing our trees and producing premium olive oil right here on our farm.

So, even if we’re a day late, we’re still raising a toast to the olive – a symbol of peace, longevity, and good health. 🫒💚

🌿 The Morning Wellness Shot Everyone Is Talking About 🌿

A growing wellness trend is making its way into kitchens around the world:

🫒 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
🍋 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
🫚 A small piece of fresh ginger

Blended together and enjoyed before or with breakfast, this simple combination is said to offer a variety of potential benefits:

✨ Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats
• Contains natural antioxidants and polyphenols
• May help support overall cardiovascular health

🍋 Fresh Lemon Juice
• Provides a natural source of Vitamin C
• May help support hydration when added to a morning routine
• Adds a refreshing citrus flavour

🫚 Fresh Ginger
• Traditionally used to support digestion
• May help ease occasional nausea
• Contains natural compounds with antioxidant properties

Many people enjoy this combination as part of a balanced lifestyle, particularly for its digestive benefits and as a nourishing way to start the day.

At Oakhurst Olives, we love seeing Extra Virgin Olive Oil used in simple, natural ways that celebrate both flavour and wellness. Our premium EVOO is crafted with care from grove to bottle, bringing the goodness of the olive straight to your table.

Harvest season may be over, but the reward of months of care and dedication has finally arrived — our new season olive oil is here. 🌿✨

Our Delicate blend, crafted from Maurino and Koroneiki olives, is beautifully smooth, fresh and balanced, with subtle fruity notes and a gentle peppery finish that makes it perfect for everyday enjoyment.

From the final harvest to the first pour, this is the taste of the season captured in every bottle — fresh, vibrant and straight from the farm at Oakhurst Olives.

There’s something incredibly special about opening the first bottles of new oil… the aroma, the colour, the freshness — a reminder of why we love what we do. 🫒💚

Fresh. Local. Family-run.
That’s the Oakhurst promise !

Did You Know? 🫒

The famous Kalamata Olive gets its name from the city of Kalamata in southern Greece — and it’s one of the world’s most loved table olives.

Recognisable by its deep purple colour, almond shape and rich fruity flavour, the Kalamata olive is naturally high in healthy fats and antioxidants.

Perfect in salads, on platters, paired with wine… or enjoyed straight from the jar. ✨

At Oakhurst Olives we love celebrating every olive variety and the unique story behind each one.
