FAQ: Adopt an Olive Tree \u2013 Sponsorship Program in Italy<\/h3>\n
\n \t
What does “Adopt an Olive Tree” mean at Organic Farming Italy?<\/dt>\n \t
If you adopt an olive tree<\/strong>, you actively support organic farming in Liguria<\/strong> and become part of our community. Your own olive tree<\/strong> receives a handmade olive wood name tag<\/strong> \u2013 a personal moment that we document for you with pictures and a video. <\/dd>\n \t
How Do You Personalize My Olive Tree \u2013 Do I Receive Photos and a Video?<\/dt>\n \t
Yes. Micol and Elena<\/strong> create photos and a personal video<\/strong> of your tree. You will receive a private Dropbox folder<\/strong> (optionally a WhatsApp group<\/strong>) with the video, pictures, and sponsorship certificate<\/strong> \u2013 accessible anytime on your mobile device. <\/dd>\n \t
What Makes Taggiasca Olives and your Olive Oil so Special?<\/dt>\n \t
You adopt a Taggiasca olive tree<\/strong>, a traditional variety<\/strong> from Taggia. In the terraced slopes of Liguria<\/strong>, everything is done by hand<\/strong> (pruning, care, harvesting). The result: a mildly fruity Taggiasca organic olive oil<\/strong> with a distinctive profile. <\/dd>\n \t
How much olive oil do I get when I adopt an olive tree?<\/dt>\n \t
The amount of olive oil<\/strong> we automatically send you depends on the size of the tree. A small tree yields 1 bottle<\/strong>, a regular tree 3 bottles<\/strong>, and a large tree 6 bottles<\/strong>. <\/dd>\n \t
How quickly will I receive the name tag, photos, and video?<\/dt>\n \t
Weather permitting<\/strong>, signs are usually inscribed twice a week<\/strong>. On average, we need 3-6 days<\/strong> until the certificate, sign, photos, and video<\/strong> are ready. <\/dd>\n \t
How long does the olive tree sponsorship last \u2013 can I extend my olive tree adoption?<\/dt>\n \t
By default, 1 year<\/strong>, so that a harvest falls within the term. Towards the end, we will ask you if you would like to extend<\/strong> \u2013 the following year is cheaper<\/strong>. <\/dd>\n \t
Is there a Subscription for the Olive Tree Sponsorship?<\/dt>\n \t
Yes. With the subscription<\/strong>, you automatically receive olive oil from your tree every year<\/strong>. You can pause or cancel it online at any time<\/strong>. To the sponsorship subscription >><\/a> <\/dd>\n \t
Can I Gift the Olive Tree Sponsorship?<\/dt>\n \t
Certainly! Add a gift package<\/strong>: elegant box with a certificate in a white real wood frame<\/strong> and a small bottle of organic olive oil<\/strong> from the farm. Shipping to you or directly to the recipient \u2013 gladly with a personal greeting message. <\/dd>\n \t
How does my sponsorship support farmers in Liguria?<\/dt>\n \t
A portion of your fee goes to the initiative “Rete Tesori della Riviera”<\/strong>, which promotes organic farming<\/strong> and supports olive farmers in Liguria<\/strong> \u2013 such as during droughts<\/strong> and in maintaining the terraces.<\/dd>\n \t
