For Sale

Gautrey Farms near Masterton hope to enjoy the first harvest from their grove of FS 17 trees (a variant of Frantoio ) this year. We exspect between one and two tonnes of fruit. We would prefer to sell the crop as fruit or bulk oil rather than bottle and market it ourselves. Hence we wish to seek offers from Olives NZ members and hope that we can publicise our crop through your office. Delivery would be easiest in the Wairarapa and maybe the message  would be best diseminated via Ian Juno. More information is available from John McCafferty, at cellphone 0274441011 or john.olive@xtra.co.nz

Wanted to Buy
2011 Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Matapiro Olives and New Zealand Premium Foods are seeking EVOO from the 2011 harvest season.
EVOO is sought from the following varieties;
NZ Premium Food Ltd (NZPFL) – Frantoio, Leccino and a mild blend.
Matapiro (MOL)– Picual, Koroneiki and Barnea. Other varieties may be considered.
Both MOL and NZFPL seek EVOO of high quality at a reasonable price. The recent newsletter proposed that in order to meet prospective purchaser’s requirements certain steps by a grove need to be undertaken. We commend those steps and therefore repeat them below.
1   Ensure the olives are of high quality through careful grove management.
2   Harvest the fruit at the optimum time in terms of oil and polyphenol content, taking the likelihood of frost into account. As the olives ripen the polyphenol content will drop. Therefore oil from late-harvested fruit will have low polyphenol levels, keep less well and have less attraction for potential purchases.
3   Ensure the fruit is processed as soon as possible after picking.
4   Process your fruit in a plant with high standards and a current New Zealand Food Safety Plan.
5   Process each olive variety and store the oil separately. Avoid the temptation to combine the oils. Only blend the quantity that you require for yourself.
6   After processing, allow the oil to settle for 3 – 4 weeks, then rack to remove any sediment that will result in lower oil quality.
7   Present the EVOO clean and clear of any matter.
8   Store the oil in stainless steel tanks under a layer of argon or nitrogen. Ensure the temperature of the storage area is between 10 and 18 degrees Celsius.
9   Certify each olive oil through the Olives New Zealand Certification programme. Remember the quicker you certify your oils, the quicker you can sell them.

Be prepared to supply proof of certification, the relevant chemical analysis report, the name of the operation that processed your olives (The names of processing plants with a current Food Safety plan are available at the NZFSA website) and a sample of the EVOO.
