Are you looking for a real original Christmas gift ?

How about an Italian Olive Tree under the Christmas tree ?

ByItaly  is looking for adoptive parents all over the world for olive trees in Italy. The service is called “Adopt an Olive Tree”. http://adopt.byitaly.com/.

Customers get their own extra virgin olive oil and help at the same time small Italian farmers to keep up an old tradition.

Becoming an adoptive parent of an olive tree customers will get their own olive oil at the end of the year. The “parents” can proudly put on the table an extra virgin olive oil from their Italian tree and tell their friends where it comes from and how it was produced.

At the same time they help small Italian farmers to continue their work and their love for the nature and for extra virgin olive oil – an agriculture that has been abandoned in many parts of the country.

Of course they get a picture of their tree with their name written on a wooden plate. And they can come and visit.

By the way: Did you know, extra virgin olive oil is not just good for your heart and colesterol, but also against diabetes ?

One reason more for this healthy and sustainable Christmas gift.
