The Texas Olive Oil Council, founded in 1994 as a non-profit organization, set a goal to successfully cultivate olives in Texas. The experts said that it couldn't be done, but members of the Texas Olive Oil Council are proving them wrong. The purpose of the Texas Olive Oil Council is to gather and disseminate the most current and pertinent information for growing olives and making olive oil in Texas. We also develop and promote standards for the production and labeling of Texas olive oil and to protect, inform, and engender the trust and loyalty of the consumer.
