Gold Ridge Organic Farms is located 50 miles northwest of San Francisco in the rolling hills of Sebastopol, where coastal breezes & optimal soils provide ideal growing conditions for 88 acres of olives & apples.
Farmer Brooke Hazen grows our CCOF Certified Organic olives using organic farming methods and then within hours of harvest makes them into four distinct olive oils in our onsite mill.
We are small farmers and stewards of the land. We pride ourselves in creating farm to table oils that are high in healthy antioxidants and polyphenols and are also delicious. Please enjoy them!
"I haven’t encountered many American olive oils that knocked me out, but this one from Gold Ridge Organic Farms in Sebastapol is exceptionally good." - Ruth Reichl, James Beard Award Winning Food Writer & Chef
The 2023 Harvest Tuscan Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Gold Ridge Organic Farms is bright and attractive. It is made with CCOF Certified Organic olives and shows aromas of freshly cut hay with hints of Herbes de Provence. Flavors of green apple, fresh pine nut and a hint of green almond. Medium bodied with a light spicy finish. This is a perfectly versatile oil that can easily saute, finish a dish or bring special flavors to your vinaigrette. A favorite kitchen staple for many esteemed chefs in San Francisco and the Bay Area.
An Italian blend of mostly Frantoio and Leccino with a small amount of Maurino and Pendolino olives.
