RATA OLIVES – AWARD WINNING OLIVE OIL

Congratulations to Hamilton and Gail on their gold and silver medals at the 2018 NZ Extra Virgin Olive Oil Awards. Fifteen years ago the couple purchased a few olive trees and quickly discovered that their microclimate, near Marton, was ideal for olive production. They now have 1400 trees with five different varieties. Their Frantoio Oil won the gold, and Leccino a silver. They have been selling at markets for 4 years now and can be found at the Feilding Farmers Market each Friday. What a lovely gift for friend or family member.
