Riverbend Farm Mill
Riverbend Farm Mill is situated on the farm amongst the olive groves. With two Oliomio machines, imported from Italy, the Olive Mill is able to process approximately 700-800kg of olives into oil per hour.
During harvest time, olives are hand picked and brought to the Mill within 24 hours of picking thus ensuring the quality of the fruit is maintained. The oil is extracted first thing in the morning when the air is cool and crisp. Once processed, the Olive oil is stored in stainless steel tanks before bottling or packaging into tins.
The Olive shed is dedicated to the curing of table olives.
The olives are carefully handpicked before being brought to the shed, where they are stored in tanks of brine for curing. Once cured, they are rinsed with fresh water, sorted, bottled and labelled before they are ready for you to enjoy.
