This is a brilliant idea that was shared via Amanda Hesser’s Food52 blog.  The Nudo cooperative of olive farmers in Italy has created a wonderful program.  Adopt one of their olive trees and you get to track it throughout the year and receive the olive oil extracted from that tree.  They have a many varieties of oils from different groves.  You select your tree and receive first cold-press oil from that very tree.  Very cool!

Some ideas are so good they are worth sharing.  Now the tough part is narrowing it down to just one tree!  I may need to pour a glass of wine while reading about each grove!
