Oregon Olive Mill

Located in the heart of the Oregon wine country, the latest argicultural venture is growing - olives that is. Starting in 2005 the Durant Family planted a small olive orchard at Red Ridge Farms, and have been adding to it every year since. With over 17 acres and 13,000 trees now, olives are here to stay. The Oregon Olive Mill was completed in the fall of 2008. The structure houses our state- of-the-art olive pressing facility, oil storage area, bottling line, and impressive event room available for rent. Over the past five years, we have planted a total of 13,000 olive trees over 17 acres in the Dundee Hills. The varietals planted thus far, include: Arbequina, Leccino, Mission, Pendolino, Koroneiki, and Picual, as well as several others we are experimenting with. Each type of olive produces a distinctive flavor, and our hope is to have a diverse selection for making into oils.
