About Little Gypsy Farms

Our family, whose surname translates to ‘Little Gypsy’, has always been a resourceful tribe. Cast out by invading Ottomans from outlying islands in search of safety and sustenance, our ancestors took to the mountains, fulfilling their namesake without a home, eventually settling on fertile ground alongside the Mediterranean Sea. ​This seaside land between mountains in the southern Peloponnese of Greece provided an advantageous microclimate, always a few degrees warmer in the winter with more rainfall courtesy of the nearby peaks. Here we began to grow.​ Settling our roots in the region for three generations cultivating ancient tree varieties, our farms continue the tradition of handpicking high quality/low yielding artisanal olives, cold pressing them into premium oil at the local mill within 24 hours. The result is a nutritionally superior Extra Virgin Oil, higher in amino acids and polyphenol content yet low in acidity with a delicate flavor and a full nutty, artichoke finish.Read their story
