Mt Moriac Olives
Mt Moriac Olives is an olive grove located in the Surf Coast region of Victoria, Australia, established in 2000. The grove contains 1,489 trees planted on a ridge with rich volcanic soil and is sheltered by the Otway Ranges. They grow five varieties of olives: Arbequina, Frantoio, Leccino, Pendolino, and Picual. Relying primarily on rainfall for irrigation, their extra virgin olive oils reflect seasonal variations. The grove is committed to sustainable farming practices to improve soil health, manage water resources, and reduce their carbon footprint. Mt Moriac Olives is managed by Geelong Region Olives, who oversee both farming and production of their Australian extra virgin olive oils.
