Extra Virgin Olive Oil with the Olivares Vivos seal
Extra virgin olive oils bearing the Olivares Vivos label come from estates that are restoring biodiversity, helping to mitigate climate change and supporting a farming model committed to the recovery of the flora and fauna of the olive grove.
Olivares Vivos is the first European agri-food project to scientifically validate and guarantee a real contribution to nature conservation. By choosing oils bearing the Olivares Vivos seal, you are supporting more sustainable and environmentally friendly farming and consuming a product of excellent quality, as they are all Extra Virgin Olive Oils (EVOO).
Biodiversity encompasses all the species inhabiting an ecosystem. The greater the diversity in a natural environment, the greater its balance, its ecological richness and its capacity to remain healthy. That is why Olivares Vivos works to restore life in the countryside and turn the olive grove into a refuge for birds, insects, plants and other species essential to the planet.
The Mediterranean olive grove is one of Europe’s most important crops for nature conservation and has enormous potential to restore its biodiversity. By consuming oils bearing the Olivares Vivos seal, you are committing to reconciling agriculture and wildlife and helping to save Mediterranean flora and fauna.
The Olivares Vivos project has the scientific endorsement of the CSIC and the University of Jaén, and is coordinated by SEO/BirdLife. International scientific organisations such as the University of Évora and ELGO-DIMITRA are also involved.
