Pierluigi Giachi and his family created this project to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Tenuta Torciano (1720–2020).
The goal of this initiative is to protect and restore more than 7,300 centuries-old olive trees located on our estates around Florence. These trees produce the excellent Tuscan extra virgin olive oil that has made our region famous.
Maintaining these historic trees requires intensive manual work and continuous care. Through our olive tree adoption program, we aim to support the preservation of these ancient plants and ensure their environmental survival for future generations.
BECOME AN ITALIAN FARMER
SAVE AN OLIVE TREE
Why Adopt AN OLIVE tree
You will have the opportunity to adopt one or more olive trees for ONE, THREE, or FIVE years, contributing directly to the care and maintenance of these precious plants.
Each olive tree makes a meaningful contribution to the environment through its natural absorption of CO₂. By helping keep these trees in optimal condition, we can continue to enjoy their extra virgin olive oil with unique properties, while preserving the timeless beauty of the Tuscan olive groves.
At the same time, this experience allows you to feel part of something real – to truly become an Italian farmer, even from afar.
You will be able to follow the life of your tree throughout the seasons, including:
- cleaning and care operations
- pruning, an ancient art essential for its preservation
- flowering
- the birth and growth of olives
Through your adoption, you actively support the protection and continuity of these trees, helping them thrive for generations to come.
A simple gesture, with a lasting impact – for the environment, for tradition, and for the future.
