Solidarity gift with Olive Oil

Christmas Day is approaching and solidarity actions can also take place with gastronomy, in this case with Olive Oil.

Gifts generally have a useful purpose, but today we want to set ourselves apart, also providing a point of originality and sustainability.

Sponsor an Olive tree is the topic that we are addressing today in the magazine, and for this we want to value the action of apadrinaunolivo.org

It is a sustainable and solidarity project which began its journey two years ago, with a truly ambitious objective to bring life back to more than 100.000 centenary olive trees that languish abandoned in Oliete, a municipality in the province of Teruel.

To do this, a group of young entrepreneurs launched this initiative, with institutional and business support such as the Government of Aragon, the La Caixa Foundation, the Telefonica Foundation, Stihl, New Holland or Acorn, among others.

Currently there are 1.800 godparents who pay for and finance the recovery of 5.000 olive trees, fleeing abandonment and their worst enemies, plagues and droughts.

This solidarity action is helping to generate jobs in the area, many of them for people with disabilities, thus achieving a sustainable economy with social insertion.

Sustainable and supportive Olive Oil.

From now on, a centenary olive tree can be part of you !, and thus contribute our bit to change the world.

They are only € 50 a year to help maintain, conserve and produce these eternal companions of our Mediterranean ecosystem, who will also contribute to improving the planet and reactivating a rural area.

It all begins by choosing the olive tree to give, sponsor and / or baptize it, and for this you will receive two liters of oil from the olive trees already recovered, of the empeltre variety. The product is made in the recent “Triple S” oil mill (solidarity, social y sustainable) that has just been built in the town.

The monitoring of its recovery is carried out from the new mobile application “My olive tree”, which allows you to view photos of the tree, or any news related to the project.

You can also visit your olive tree periodically, which is an educational family plan, and experience in the field of sustainable economy.

Dare to give Oil this Christmas and collaborate with the sustainability of the planet!
