Lucero Olive Oil

We've grown olives for over 70 years in Corning, California, a rural community in a far northern corner of the fertile Sacramento River valley. Our town was established as The Olive City in the middle of the last century when nine different olive canneries thrived processing the giant "Queen" olive. Today, the nine canneries have been reduced to a single giant one, the second largest in the world, and many of our neighbors grow olives for making olive oil. In 2009 we planted several olive types specifically for this purpose, and now grow and mill 17 different olive varieties into delicious extra virgin olive oil in our own custom mill close to our trees.
