Olio Bello

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is grown and pressed on a spectacular 320 acre, certified organic olive farm, in the heart of WA’s Margaret River region. With 8000 trees and 14 unique varieties, the property is surrounded by dramatic natural beauty, where the olives thrive in an ideal Mediterranean climate. Its award winning oils reflect a long-term labour of love and commitment to sustainable agriculture and organic farming principles. Since its first harvest in 1998, it has steadily gained industry recognition, to become amongst the most awarded small producers in Australia. Featuring a Cafe, Tasting Room, Gourmet Deli, Olio Organics Beauty and luxury Lakeside Glamping Accommodation, Olio Bello offers a truly authentic and signature Margaret River agri-tourism experience. Every year, it also proudly presses for over 30 local growers across the south west and works to promote the strong collegiate spirit of Western Australia’s olive oil industry. www.oliobello.com.au
