welcome to olive gap organic farm
Meet Our Team
We are a certified organic family farm specialising in artisan essential oils & seasonal cut flowers.
Located in the Northern Rivers of NSW Australia, our team consists of Alex & Tara (and our three daughters) and Tess & Nina (and their dog Ulvi).
_______________
Alex and Tess are brother and sister and grew up just down the road.
We bought the farm from our neighbour Arthur Brown. An 85-year-old marathon runner, passionate about organic farming and the 100-year-old artisan method of wood-fire steam distillation. Working by himself for 40 years, with us around now to do the work, Arthur stayed on the farm for two years as our mentor.
Aside from the environmental benefits, our low pressure, low-temperature distillation, produces a unique, botanical aroma, sweeter and lighter than regular tea tree oil. People also report less irritation and higher potency than conventional tea tree brands.
As far as we know, we are the only farm continuing to run an off-grid, traditional artisan distillery.
