Local Olive Oil from the Heart of Calaveras County

Twine-tied bottles of Rose Brothers extra virgin olive oil in the family's olive orchard at sunset

Calaveras County has been growing olives since the Gold Rush, and today it's home to a small group of family olive oil makers. Rose Brothers is one of them: a five-acre orchard of centenarian olive trees (more than 100 years old) in Valley Springs, farmed by the Rose brothers.
