The Green family established their award-winning olive estate at Boneo on theMornington Peninsula estate in 2007.

L'Uliveto Verde is a 19 hectare holding.

Translated to The Green Olive Grove, L'Uliveto Verde was kicked off when the Green family planted 3,250 olive trees across 16 hectares.

The grove, with a style which is inherently Italian, was planted in a traditional European diamond style, with trees planted in diagonal rows five and seven metres apart.

The trees used for oil are Italian varieties, Frantoio and Lucino, using a Spanish origin Paqual as a cultivator. The table varieties are a classic Greek kalamata.

The property also has a large organic orchard with 70 different fruit varieties, along with an organic vegetable operation. 

European influences continue to the six bedroom Mediterranean-style homestead.
