At Rich Glen, harvest isn’t simply a season, it’s the moment everything comes alive.
The groves shimmer silver-green, the air carries that unmistakable fresh-cut aroma, and the countdown begins for our most anticipated release: Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Across 35,000 olive trees lining the Murray River, each olive is picked at the very beginning of the season, brilliantly green, vibrant and bursting with vitality.
This is when they are naturally richest in polyphenols, the powerful antioxidants that give exceptional extra virgin olive oil its remarkable health benefits and that signature peppery finish.
And then we move, quickly.
Within hours of harvest, our olives are cold-pressed on-site.
Not days later. Not after long transport. Within hours.
Because when it comes to capturing the good stuff, time matters.
That speed locks in peak flavour, preserves antioxidants and delivers what we proudly believe is some of the healthiest extra virgin olive oil in the world.
The result is bold. Fresh. Intensely alive.
To taste Early Harvest is to experience olive oil at full expression, green, grassy, vibrant, with a lively peppery kick at the back of the throat (that’s the polyphenols working their magic).
It transforms the everyday into something special: warm sourdough becomes a ritual, roasted vegetables turn restaurant-worthy, and a simple drizzle feels indulgent.
Harvest runs from late April through to August, a fleeting window where nature, timing and craft align perfectly.
And like all seasonal luxuries, once it’s gone, it’s gone.
