Texas olive farmers elect leaders

Texas olive oils are becoming the toast of the culinary world and olive growers from around the state reached a milestone on last month when they met in Dripping Springs to elect, for the first time, a board of directors to help advocate for the booming industry. The Texas Olive Growers Association & Council elected board members and committee directors to advance the association’s mission to promote the growth of olive tree farming, olive oil production and olive farming education in Texas.
