ABOUT THE PRODUCERS

Jeff Martin, Frantoio Grove
Olive oil making is in Jeff Martin's blood. He made a pilgrimage to his relative's old stomping grounds in January 2011, and discovered a 140-year orchard consisting of several hundred olive trees still standing, right where his great-great-grandfather planted it in 1871. So far, Martin has reaped 12, nine and 30 tons of olives in his first three harvests. His goal is to reach 90 to 100 tons in the future. He also plans on building a mill on the property in order to eliminate the cost and risk of trucking the delicate fruit 50 miles to another location. The fruit, on that note, is the inspiration for the brand, which is named for the 3,500 Frantoio trees dotting his property.
