1836: A Texas Olive Company

Founded by a Texas family with a storied interest in olive oil, 1836 cultivates, harvests, mills and bottles its own olives on an estate in Asherton, Texas, using four selected varieties suited to the Hill Country climate. The olives are processed onsite with modern milling equipment that allows the company to produce EVOO entirely from its own fruit. Production follows an integrated approach that limits transport and supports the local ecosystem, and the business is a member of the Texas Olive Oil Association, the American Olive Oil Producers Association and the Gotexan growers network. The oil has been referenced in USDA and Texas Department of Agriculture publications and has received wide acclaim from chefs.
