The Gwydir Grove Story 1996-2007

The Gwydir Grove story started 11 years ago.

The label began in Moree in North-West NSW in 1996. Two Moree women, Margi Kirkby and Jenni Birch bought themselves a second-hand olive press and harvested all the local olive trees they could find as their own newly planted olive trees were too young to be producing. Margi and Jenni began selling the oil in local shops under the name "Gwydir Grove".

As the business grew, other local growers came on board and formed the company Gwydir Olives Pty Ltd. The company was based in Inverell, NSW as the climatic conditions are better suited to storing oil. The state of the art factory opened in 1999.

Ten years later the Gwydir Grove brand is one of Australia’s leading premium olive oils.
