Olive Oil Club (Pick Up)
Olive Oil Club (Pick Up)
As a founding member of our club, you will get a year’s worth of Happy Acre Olive oil. You will receive a 500 ml bottle of our Single Origin, Cold-Pressed Olive Oil every 3 months for a year. In addition, each shipment will include a fun little surprise like a handmade tote bag, cheeky magnets, a zine, etc.
The first shipment will be our Olio Nuovo—“New Oil”— and the next three will be a variety of our Liquid Gold. Releases will be available for pick up on the following dates: December 10, March 11, June 10 and September 9.
We have 6 options for pick up sites: the farm in Sunol, Story Coffee in Livermore, The Boardroom Pleasanton, Redwood Heights in Oakland, Crocker Highlands in Oakland, and a site in Fremont. All addresses and pick up directions will be sent in a welcome email.
Our mission is twofold:
1. We want to bring you great olive oil that is thoughtfully and sustainably cultivated and produced.
2. We want to be caring stewards of the land we cultivate, to grow nutritious and delicious food, and to nourish and give back to our community.
Running a vegetable farm is a hard business, and we rely on olive oil sales to sustain our operations throughout the year.
Every dollar we make is funneled back into the farm to pay our small but mighty team, and to invest in supplies. Our goal is not to make a profit, but rather to break even so we can continue to serve our community and do what we love.
Our farm serves anywhere between 30-60 households per season, and provides 1-3 bulk food donations per week to various organizations in Alameda county working to combat food insecurity. Over the past year we have reduced our food waste by over 90% through the implementation of our food donation initiatives. We are very passionate about continuing this important work especially as food prices continue to rise across the country. Like many small businesses, we have felt the crunch of a difficult economy.
Every Olive Oil club membership will be instrumental in helping us to continue to serve our community, steward the land we farm and do what we love.
