25.01.2022 We are unable to travel to Melbourne this weekend for our monthly stall at Elwood Farmers Market. This month was going to be our last and a chance for Graham to farewell his customers so we will instead make August our last market and hope to see you there on Saturday morning the 8th August.

23.01.2022 To all our Elwood Farmers Market customers - please come and say farewell to Graham Barrow next market on Saturday 8th August. He would like to thank you in person for your support and appreciation (no hugging or handshakes though). He has sold his olive grove and is bowing out of the industry after producing an award-winning early harvest extra virgin olive oil for 25 years. We still have enough premium extra virgin olive oil and lime pressed olive oil to satisfy demand at t...his months market so come and stock up. We will continue selling remaining stock via our online shop until it runs out. It was a small harvest this season but we did also produce our favourite lime pressed oil. Dont forget to bring your refill flask along if you have one as we will have an oil drum with us for refills. If you dont want to leave your house, just send us a message with your order or make an order via our online shop http://barrowolives.com.au/store and we will deliver free. #elwoodfarmersmarket

23.01.2022 The 2020 harvest is well under way. It will be a short one as the promise in September of a good harvest with many trees flowering well, did not progress as hoped due to the hot, dry and windy conditions in October. However some trees are bountiful and the early harvest oil we are pressing smells and tastes as good as ever. Monicas nephew Eddie has come to visit to lend a hand and experience Mallee life. We look forward to bringing the new season oil to our farmers markets and for online sale in June after it has had a chance to settle out in the vats.

23.01.2022 The end of an era! Due to a very small harvest this year I have only been able to produce a limited amount of premium extra virgin olive oil. So sadly the farmers markets in July will be my last (11th Elwood Farmers Market, 12th Flemington Farmers Market, 18th Brighton Farmers Market). So please come and say good-bye as I would like to thank you in person for your custom and appreciation.... There will be some remaining stock but sales will be via the online store barrowolives.com.au until it runs out. Free delivery if you live in the vicinity of these markets.

23.01.2022 This easter sunday is market day at Flemington Farmers Market. We offer a cashless service but will take cash. Not wanting to leave the house? Just order online at http://barrowolives.com.au and we will deliver. Otherwise we hope to see you at the market (classified as an essential service) with farmers brining you fresh and healthy farm based food, including our delicious, organically produced extra virgin olive oil and table olives.

22.01.2022 The olive grove has been sold ! The new owners will take possession after this coming harvest which will finish in May. So sadly, this will be our last harvest but we will continue selling our olive oil through farmers markets in Melbourne Elwood Farmers Market, Brighton Farmers Market, Flemington Farmers Market until we sell out of the new seasons olive oil. We will also continue to sell directly through our online shop http://barrowolives.com.au/store. The new owners will ...be shadowing Graham during this harvest as they plan to continue producing premium quality extra virgin olive oil so they will be learning how the press works and how the grove is maintained. Thanks for being loyal customers and we hope you will continue buy our oil. The new seasons early harvest extra virgin olive oil should be on sale by July. Graham has enjoyed this journey for the past 27 years immensely and it will be a sad day when the last harvest is over.

22.01.2022 Looking forward to a return to normality tomorrow morning at the Swan Hill Farmers Market and a chance to connect with our community here. Our other home near Bright is under "Watch and Act" at the moment and Monica evacuated yesterday (with the olive oil stockpile in the car) so no risk of a supply shortage should the unexpected worst happen We are both looking forward to a pleasant morning.

21.01.2022 After ten years its time to say a sad farewell to Flemington Farmers Market on Sunday 9th August as well as the olive grove itself.

We will sell the remaining stock online. Graham would like to say a brief farewell and thank you to his customers when they come to pi...ck up their orders. It is unfortunate that this last market is during lock-down but you can pre-order at http://barrowolives.com.au/store or just send us a message with your order if you dont want to navigate the online shop.

I you have a refill flask, order a refill and bringit along as we will have a cask for doing refills with us. #flemingtonfarmersmarket Graham Barrow has been producing an award-winning early harvest extra virgin olive oil for 25 years.

20.01.2022 Our second time at the Bonbeach Farmers Market this Sunday and Graham will have the full range of our olive oils for sale (premium early harvest extra virgin and lime, lemon, mandarin, garlic and chilli pressed oils).

We will instead make August our last market and hope to see you there on Sunday morning the 9th August.

15.01.2022 A nice cool day at Flemington Farmers Market this Sunday 14-21 and cloudy. Dont forget to bring your flask along for a refill - we can refill with our flavoured pressed oils as well as our premium extra virgin olive oil. A long summer of salads still lies ahead and our lemon, lime and mandarin oils can really enhance your salads without any other addition. After the heat and smoke of these past couple of weeks at our other property in Eurobin, we are looking forward to a pleasant morning chatting to our customers. We are evacuees this weekend, as we were last weekend.

15.01.2022 Looking forward to our second time at Mulgrave Farmers Market tomorrow and a chance to have more people taste our fruity, grassy, extra virgin olive oil. Verdale variety olives harvested early in the season and pressed the day of the harvest make for a very fine oil for salads, drizzling and dipping. Our pressed flavoured oils where we crush whole fruit with the olives before pressing should be sampled too. Great for Christmas gifts.

15.01.2022 Great weekend in Melbourne coming up with our just bottled 2020 early harvest premium extra virgin oil and lime pressed olive oil for sale at Elwood Farmers Market on Saturday and Flemington Farmers Market on Sunday.

13.01.2022 Unfortunately this Sundays Swan Hill Farmers Market will be the last for Barrow Olives. We are finding it increasingly difficult to get back for the first Sunday of every month from our new project 400km away so sadly we have to say farewell to our local farmers market where we have enjoyed talking to friends and customers alike each month. We have stocks of all of our olive oils except for the Mandarin Pressed Olive Oil which we have sold out of. So come and see us on Sun...day and stock up. You can also put in an order request on our web site http://barrowolives.com.au/store or just send us a message if you cant make it to the market on Sunday and we will deliver it. We will be in Swan Hill until Tuesday this visit, and will be returning regularly over the next few months until after the next harvest in May (but not unfortunately on the first weekend of the month).

13.01.2022 We will be at our original Melbourne farmers market Flemington Farmers Market this Sunday. Feels like home. Come along and replenish your supply of delicious premium extra virgin olive oil or pressed flavoured oils. Or buy some gifts for Christmas - you can take a bottle of olive oil instead of wine along as a gift to your host. And if youre a regular dont forget to bring your refillable flask. We will have bulk premium extra virgin oil and buld pressed garlic oil for refills.

10.01.2022 Graham will be returning to the grove to do some upkeep, possibly leaving as early as this Friday. So if you are in the Swan Hill district and would like to order some oil please either order online or send us a message. Products and prices an be seen at https://www.barrowolives.com.au/store/ Monica will be in Melbourne at the Flemington Farmers Market this Sunday.

10.01.2022 Come and say hi to Graham at the Swan Hill Farmers Market this Sunday and buy some tasty olive oil for that summer entertaining, not to mention gifts. BOM says it might be a mild day (max 20) with 40% of rain. Not that rain will dampen spirits these days. We have more varieties of table olives now ready for eating and you can buy them in jars or freshly marinated.

09.01.2022 Come on down to the Swan Hill Farmers Market this morning for great local produce and taste the yummiest of olive oils and table olives.

It will be the last time for us so stock up and come and say goodbye.

04.01.2022 The last crush for the 2020 season happened this morning. We included all the limes from our Tahitian lime trees with the olives to make a delicious agrumato lime oil for the final press. The early harvest extra virgin olive oil we have been pressing from our Verdale olive trees is as tasty as ever and with just slightly more pepperiness than usual. Looking forward to when it is ready for bottling in June. Our 2019 season oil is still tasting great with a best before date of May 2021.
