Community Milling Day
The Durant Olive Mill’s Community Milling Day is for growers with less than the 1,000-lb minimum for Custom Milling — all you need is just 2 gallons of olives! Inspired by traditional community milling days in the Mediterranean, we’ll combine everyone’s harvest to create a fresh, seasonally unique Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Be part of this lively, hands-on tradition with your very own oil as we celebrate the season, and savor Durant Vineyards wine and small bites along the way!
Milling Day Details:
– Weather permitting, we recommend trying to pick your olives as close to the milling date as possible and storing them in a cool, well ventilated place.
-Bring olives in a vented container such as a 5 gallon bucket or bin, uncovered. (Please do not bring olives in coolers, lidded containers, or garbage bags as it will cause the olives to spoil).
– Olives will be inspected and weighed. Olives that are damaged or compromised will not be accepted.
– Cost is $1.50 per lb of olives processed
– Minimum of 2 gallons per person
– Example yield: 50 lbs of olives will yield roughly 1/2 gallon of olive oil (depending on quality, handling, ripeness, and other factors)
– Event is limited to 35 people
– Your olive oil will be ready for pickup on 12/7
