Sandra

Sandra's Grandmother

Sandra wanted some good olive oil, like the kind that her Sicilian grandmother kept in her kitchen when she was growing up. She couldn't find it anywhere, so she decided her family should make their own. And that's how it all began.

Their olives are harvested on family owned and operated groves. Careful selection and maintenance of each harvest is guaranteed and their Olive Oils are 100% Californian fruit, 100% Extra Virgin, 100% First Cold Press, 100% All Natural, 100% Cholesterol and Chemical Free, are a limited production and are harvest dated.

Brad and Sandra's children Marina, Isabella and Noah play an active role in the business as well.
