One Grower, Met by Chance, 27 Years Ago
Karl Burgart started farming organically almost three decades ago — before it was mainstream — growing enough on his own land to feed his family of five. At a farmers market, he met the family behind our Greek olive oil, and Healthy Harvest started from that one relationship. Today his son Jonathon carries the tradition forward, sourcing the same way: directly, in person, one family at a time.
Most Olive Oil on Shelves Is Diluted, Blended, or Stale Before It's Bottled
The farms we work with have been in the same family for generations. They use organic growing methods to protect the air, water, and soil for generations to come. They still pick the olives by hand for perfect ripeness, and then they cold press the olives within an hour of picking to retain the most nutrients. The result is an olive oil with outstanding quality, flavor, and aroma that is far superior to corporate olive oils.

Frequently Asked Questions About Extra Virgin Olive Oil
What is the difference between olive oil and extra virgin olive oil?
In the Mediterranean, we've known for generations that not all olive oil is created equal. Extra virgin olive oil comes from the very first pressing of fresh olives—no heat, no chemicals, nothing added. Regular olive oil? It's often refined, processed, or blended with cheaper oils. Our families in Italy and Greece still press their olives within one hour of harvest, the way it's been done for over 200 years. That's how you preserve the true flavor, aroma, and goodness that real olive oil should have.
Is extra virgin olive oil really good for you?
Absolutely. In Greece and Italy, extra virgin olive oil isn't just an ingredient—it's the foundation of how we eat and live. Pure EVOO is packed with antioxidants, polyphenols, and healthy fats that support your heart, reduce inflammation, and nourish your body from the inside out. But here's what matters: it must be real. Much of what you find in stores has been diluted or adulterated. That's why we lab-test every harvest—so you can trust that what you're putting in your body is the genuine article.
Is a spoonful of extra virgin olive oil every day good for you?
This is how Italian grandparents live to be 90 and beyond. A daily spoonful of fresh, pure extra virgin olive oil delivers a concentrated dose of antioxidants and healthy fats. Many of our customers stir it into their morning juice or simply take it straight—and they tell us they feel the difference in their energy, skin, and joints. The key is freshness. The closer to harvest, the more nutrients remain. That's why we press within hours and ship directly to you.
