Olive tree adoptions are flexible, and you can adopt a tree at any time of the year. When you first adopt a tree, you’ll receive the extra virgin olive oil from the most recent harvest. Our harvest happens at the end of November or early December each year, which is also when we automatically renew your adoption—unless you’ve told us you don't wish to renew.
This means that sometimes the renewal fee may come up before a full year has passed. For example, if you adopt in September, you'll receive oil from the previous season. Then, in November, you’ll pay the renewal fee to get the fresh oil from the new harvest. After that, your annual renewal will always be due in November or December.
