Hi Cindi:) I don't make the oil. The orchard is in Dripping Springs and is owned by a friend of my fiance. His family runs the orchard, from the hand-picking to the squeezing and bottling. We pick up product at the orchard, or they deliver sometimes, and we distribute it in the Houston area. They also sell at farmers markets in their area. We have farmers markets here year round. A couple of them take a break for a month or two in winter. Most are year round tho and we were at the farmers market on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve:) The only day we won't do is Christmas day. We have markets that we do on Wed., Thursday night, Friday night, usually 3-4 on Saturday (I work one, my fiance another, his friend another...)One on Sunday. On Mondays and Tuesdays we usually do most of our delivering to some of the finer restaurants, hotels and shops here in Houston, ones that we have gotten the oil (and balsamic vinegars) into so far. We've been doing the
farmers markets and distributing oil for a couple years so far and we are doing pretty well with it, have some fun at the markets and events, and have met some interesting people, made some wonderful friends among other vendors and our customers. The oils we sell are organic, first cold press extra virgin and people are really enjoying them here. I love working at the farmers markets too, as we get to eat some really fresh local and organic produce, some good healthy meals:) Thanks for the welcome sweetie. Looking forward to getting to know you and everyone better. Susan:)
