Olive tree adoption

Nature of the adoption

The adoption of an olive tree is nominal and symbolic. It confers no right of ownership over the tree, its fruit or the plot on which it stands; it establishes a privileged bond between the adopter and a designated tree in our estates, for the term subscribed.

Harvest, delivery and substitution

The adoption concerns a living tree, subject to natural variation. In some years, the adopted tree may produce no oil, or a reduced quantity.

Your tree's oil is delivered approximately four months after the harvest — the time needed for pressing, analysis and bottling.

Should the adopted tree not yield, Oïkos Antalis undertakes to inform the adopter and to deliver an equivalent quantity of extra virgin olive oil from another of its estates, clearly identified as such. This oil will in no case be presented as coming from the adopted tree.

Estate visits

Invitations to the harvest and to estate visits are exclusive of travel and accommodation costs, which remain the adopter's responsibility.

Shipping, customs and taxes

Orders are dispatched from France: by Colissimo within France and Europe, and by DHL Express for all other destinations.

For deliveries outside the European Union (United Kingdom, United States, Canada, China, Japan), import duties and taxes are included in the shipping cost (DDP delivery): no additional amount will be charged to you on arrival.

For deliveries to the French overseas territories (Réunion, Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Mayotte, Saint-Martin, Saint-Barthélemy, Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon), orders ship via Colissimo Outre-Mer. Local taxes (notably the octroi de mer) may be collected on arrival and remain payable by the recipient.

Shipping is calculated by order weight and destination. Shipping is free within Europe on orders over €150.
