San Miguel Olive Farm where our olives dance on the trees at midnight under the stars.

Stunning, Beautiful & Ours!

Many weeks ago, a friend from years gone by, agreed to use his artistic talent to create a sign for the gate that leads to our SAN MIGUEL OLIVE FARM. On Sunday, it was "unveiled." We approached slowly, excited to finally see the results of his labor. We were thrilled with all we saw. Amazing detail that perfectly captured the feel of our family farm.

We thank Brent, and his wife, Sheila, for how they worked as a team to give us exactly what we had wanted.

We not only savor our oil, but enjoy completely, our friendships!

The Olives Are Coming, The Olives Are Coming!!

We have been eagerly awaiting this day! The month of May was full of changes on our beautiful trees.

 First we had the tiny buds appearing.

A week later, flowers appeared.

The last day of May, tiny olives were seen!!!

These are our potential harvest for 2012 :)

While all this has been happening, we have been busy irrigating, adding emitters to the now larger trees, and removing any suckers at the bottom of the trunks.

We continue to feel so fortunate to be learning something so special...how to grow olive trees and produce a fine product.  SAN MIGUEL OLIVE FARM EVOO!

Savor with us!

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!

We just now found out we won BEST of SHOW, BEST of CLASS and GOLD, in the 2012 Napa County Olive OIl Competition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!

Weed By Weed

April showers bring........WEEDS! No doubt about that, here at San Miguel Olive Farm!

But we are in the "tackling" mood, and so with tools in hand, we head down to the farm to the young trees that are being choked by the colorful "Vetch." Every day we head down to the farm to the new trees that being choked by the colorful "Vetch!!!" :), plus numerous and sundry other hearty weeds.

This tree has just breathed a sigh of "Thank You!"

As we weed, we are noticing even the young trees are starting to bud. 

It won't be long before we see evidence of the first fruit of the season!

In the meantime, the "one armed hoer" chops away.....

and his partner in weeding takes a rest with one of the Golden Girls.

 We'll keep weeding, and you keep savoring our San Miguel Olive Farm EVOO!

We were excited once again to find we won another medal! This time in the LA International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition!

This has been such an encouraging year for us. All of our enjoyable, but hard work, has given us amazing results in the competitions we have entered.

Here is some information on this latest competition:

The Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition has grown from a 25-entry beginning to a truly spectacular array of the finest international oils. The list of Northern Hemisphere countries represented is impressive: Croatia, France, Greece, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Morocco, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey and the United States.

“Our competition has become well known for its great competence,” said Corti. “Our judges have a great deal of experience and are talented tasters.”

The competition itself is not open to the public, but they will have an opportunity to taste the winning olive oils at FUN Decanted, a wine, spirits, beer and evoo festival June 23 at Fairplex and at the 2012 L.A. County Fair, where winning olive oils will be featured at the Fair’s Wine, Beer & Spirits Marketplace.

The Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition is judged in two categories, domestic and international, and separated according to regional designations and fruitiness intensity levels. The competition also includes flavored olive oils.
