CERES Olives To Oil Festival

Come along, see people picking up their oil and get excited about community action.

Melbourne's backyard and street trees are about to become a city-wide harvest, as CERES' much-loved Olive to Oil program returns this May and June. The community-powered initiative invites residents to collect olives from their own trees - or rescue fruit going to waste in local streets and parks - and have them pressed into fresh extra virgin olive oil. For those without access to olive trees, come along to the festival and experience the action.
