Adopt an Olive Tree

Italyabroad.com, in partnership with the "famiglia" behind Nonna Ida olive oil, is excited to launch the "Adopt an Olive Tree" initiative. Set in the picturesque region of Abruzzo, Nonna Ida’s beloved olive grove is home to around 100 ancient olive trees, featuring the renowned Gentile di Chieti cultivar, a native variety central to the region’s heritage. Unfortunately, these historic trees have long been neglected and are now in need of revitalization.

At Italyabroad.com, our passion for premium extra virgin olive oil is unwavering. Known for its remarkable health benefits - including protection against heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, and obesity -extra virgin olive oil is a cornerstone of global wellness and culinary traditions.

When you enroll in the "Adopt an Olive Tree" program, you’ll receive a personalized adoption package, including stunning photographs of your adopted tree, an official adoption certificate, and its exact location via Google Maps. This thoughtful and sustainable gesture makes a unique gift for family, friends, or corporate occasions, helping preserve these vital groves and our environment for future generations.

As a special thank you, each adopter will receive three quarterly shipments of 3 liters of pure organic extra virgin olive oil directly from Nonna Ida's lovingly cared-for grove. Join us in preserving these historic olive groves and promoting environmental stewardship. Your adoption lasts one year, but its lasting impact will be felt for generations to come.

Founded in 2003 by Andrea, ItalyAbroad.com emerged from a passionate desire to bridge the gap between discerning consumers and the true essence of Italian food and wine. Upon arriving in the UK, Andrea, hailing from a family steeped in Italian winemaking traditions, recognized a stark contrast between the commercially available "Italian" products and the authentic, high-quality fare he cherished back home.

Driven by a commitment to quality and authenticity, Italyabroad.com embarked on a mission to unearth hidden gems from small, dedicated Italian wineries and artisanal producers. We meticulously curate our selection, ensuring that every product embodies the rich heritage and exceptional craftsmanship that define Italian excellence.

We partner exclusively with small, family-run businesses who uphold traditional methods and prioritize quality over mass production and our products are crafted using the finest, natural ingredients, free from palm oil, preservatives, and artificial additives. At Italyabroad.com we categorically reject industrially produced items and "Italian-sounding" imitations, focusing solely on genuine Italian delicacies.

Since 2003, Italyabroad.com has been the recipient of several awards for the high quality of products we import.
