Growing Olives in Oregon

Just as it took a small but enthusiastic group to invest in wine production more than 60 years ago, today a new group is equally determined to start another new Oregon agriculture industry with olives. While there are only about 10 commercial olive growers in Oregon so far, and less than 100 acres in cultivation – almost all in the Willamette Valley region – the passion for this promising industry is strong. This intrepid collection of growers believes in their crop while also acknowledging the roadblocks to their dream of hefty harvests.  Owner of Durant Olive Mill, Paul Durant, and Javier Fernandez-Salvador, a berry, and now olive, specialist in Oregon State University’s College of Agricultural Sciences talk about this exciting, new industry.
