Gladstone Olive Company

Gladstone Olive Company was started by two families from Wellington seeking a rural lifestyle for their children and a chance to produce their own extra virgin olive oil. Nestled on the banks of the Ruamahanga in East Taratahi, Carterton, they grow olives and involve both families in the annual harvests. Their fresh, peppery extra virgin olive oil comes in filtered and unfiltered varieties, ideal for drizzling on salads, risottos or with dukkah. The focus remains on good food and the joys of country living.
