Adopt an Olive Tree in Italy – The Fontanaro Green Project
Your own olive tree in Umbria. Five liters of exceptional organic olive oil. A lasting connection to the Italian countryside.
A living gift from the heart of Italy
What if you could adopt an olive tree in Italy and become part of a centuries-old agricultural tradition?
At Il Fontanaro, our family-owned organic farm in Paciano, Umbria, we believe that olive oil is much more than a product. It represents our land, our history, our family and our commitment to preserving the Italian countryside for future generations.
Through The Fontanaro Green Project, we invite you to adopt one of our olive trees and follow its life throughout the seasons.
Whether you are celebrating a special occasion, searching for a sustainable gift or simply dreaming of your own little corner of Italy, adopting an olive tree is a meaningful way to stay connected to nature.

Why adopt an olive tree at Il Fontanaro?
Il Fontanaro is more than an olive oil producer. It is a family-owned organic estate where farming, hospitality, food and tradition have come together for generations.
Our olive oil, Olio della Pace — the Oil of Peace — takes its name from Paciano, our beautiful Umbrian village.
We believe in producing exceptional extra virgin olive oil while respecting nature, protecting our land and sharing the authentic Italian way of life with our guests.
By adopting an olive tree, you become part of this story.
Your tree. Our land. A greener tomorrow.
