Olivian Groves
About us
In the sacred land of Ancient Messini, surrounded by old myths and eternal beauty, blessed Olive Trees facing the Temple of Asclepius are washed by the crystal waters Clepsydra Spring, on the foothills of Mount Ithomi. Right here, where the nymphs raised Zeus, we obtain our country’s most precious offering, the Olive Oil.
This is the place where the idea of Olivian Groves came to fruition in 2019. The idea soon led us to the Northeast of the Peloponnese, in another olive-growing land, Argolida. The land of the origins of the ancient Royal Greek House of the Argead Dynasty, the House of King Phillip and his son Alexander the Great. The motherland of Perseus and Hercules and in earlier times, the site where Pelasgians lived, the tribe which obtained their name from their king, Pelasgus, who ruled in about 1500 BC. Pelasgus was the father of Graecus from whom the name Greeks comes from.

Argolida
Safely stretching on the ancient land of Argolis, washed year-round in the warm sun of the Peloponnese, Ermioni is the most endowed part of the region, bearing the gifts bestowed upon her by the mythical Hermione, the beautiful and only daughter of Helen of Troy. It is here that our agronomists care for our olive groves as if they were humans, customizing their attention according to their needs, location and ground, or how much the sun reaches their branches.
