Symbol of well-being

Its millennia-old history is simply impressive: In ancient times, the olive tree was a symbol of happiness and well-being. The olive oil extracted from its fruits also has a long history: It was considered a valuable trade good early on and was a popular remedy in wound healing. The replenishing oil is excellent as a care oil for dry and sensitive skin.

Mediterranean Landmark

In the Mediterranean regions, large-scale cultivation is of great economic importance due to the high global demand for olive oil. There, they find the ideal conditions for growth: The fairly undemanding trees prefer a dry-warm climate and plenty of sunshine.

The evergreen olive tree can grow up to 15 meters tall and belongs to the olive family. Its leaves are small and elongated and have a pale gray-green color. Its native region is the Mediterranean, but it is now cultivated almost worldwide in warm climates.
