بكل الحب الى فلسطين
With all the love to Palestine
We are partnering with Olive Odyssey - a Palestinian collective dedicated to sharing the rich heritage of Palestinian farmers and their generational farms. Palestine has some of the oldest olive trees that produce the most nutrient dense olive oil in the world, with original variety trees dating back to 4,000 years ago. Some families have trees passed down for generations! Olive trees are a powerful symbol of the deep connection and care that Palestinians have with their land and their culture. The heart of Palestinians and the roots of the olive tree have been intertwined for thousands of years. Since the brutal occupation, the olive tree and its strong roots symbolize resistance and resilience for the people of Palestine.
SPECIAL EDITION! We have three exclusive and unique olive oils from our Palestinian farmers. All olives are hand nurtured, rain fed, from ancient olive trees in Palestine.
CORATINA- Farmer Mohamed Saeed Darawshi created this olive oil from Coratina olives on the hills of Nazareth. An olive that is rich and purple, high in polyphenols with perfectly tangy notes and the color is vibrant emerald-green!
SURI- An incredibly special cultivar from Naser Darawshi, this golden green hued olive oil comes from ancient Suri olives passed down through generations in the Galilee region of Nazareth! Notes are vibrant, grassy, and light.
NABLUS - Hand picked by four generations of the Yasin family from 500 year old trees in Nablus -these Nabali olives are incredibly high in nutrients and yields a beautiful golden in color oil!
Each jar is 2 oz. By purchasing a jar, you support each farmer, their livelihoods and their land. With every lotion, you will receive a farmer's card to get to know the individual farmer that created the olive oil in your jar.
With your purchase we will be donating $10 per jar to :
We are so grateful to partner with Olive Odyssey, for opening up a gateway for Palestinian farmers to connect with people around the world! Through these stories and through olive oil, we can all come together to form a circle of support; nurturing not only the trees, but also the futures of Palestinian families.
