Catalonia is a land of contrasts and diversity. For centuries, it has been a cradle of agricultural cultures and traditions. Thus, the olive oil cooperatives in Catalonia have been essential, as they have united farmers in the production and marketing of their products . Especially, these cooperatives, from the beehive to the venerable olive tree, have woven a network of solidarity. This collaboration has allowed teamwork to last over time.
The history of OliFERM in Castelldans
Within the framework of the olive oil cooperatives of Catalonia, a special story in a town in Lleida stands out. OliFERM is located between undulating fields and centuries-old olive trees. This oil is produced in the Castelldans field cooperative . Arbequina olives, collected exclusively in this dry area, enrich this product. This is the story of a people, of a tradition deeply rooted in the land, and of a flavor that has lasted through the generations.
The essence of Castelldans in every drop of oil
In the heart of the region of Les Garrigues, surrounded by fields of olive trees that stretch as far as the eye can see, lies Castelldans . This town, with a history as old as its olive trees, has seen how the land and the work of the farmers have shaped the landscape and the character of its inhabitants. Here, OliFERM is located, an olive oil cooperative from Catalonia that embodies the spirit of a resilient and hardworking land, loving the products of the land, despite not being the most abundant in irrigation. For years, from generation to generation, the inhabitants have cultivated the soul of OliFERM, the Arbequina de Castelldans olive.
The Cooperativa del Camp de Castelldans, more than oil, a village
Decades ago, a group of farming visionaries founded the Cooperativa del Camp de Castelldans. This has become the heart of the community within the Olive Oil Cooperatives in Catalonia, uniting farmers in the production of the prized Arbequina olive oil. OliFERM, however, is more than a cooperative: it is a village, it is Castelldans. Here, every drop of OliFERM oil carries with it the effort and love of those who take care of the olive groves with dedication.
