About Us

Freshfield Grove is owned by Fiona and Glenn Makowski, who bought the farm including the 1000 tree olive grove in 2014. Glenn lived away from Tasmania for many years and was keen to return, while Fiona fell in love with the island state on her first visit to Australia from the UK, and dreamed of calling it home.

Based in the heart of the Coal River Valley, Freshfield Grove is only 20 minutes from Hobart airport, and 30 minutes from Hobart’s CBD. It's a little spot of paradise, which includes wineries, boutique cheese and chocolate makers, walnut farms, fruit orchards, breweries, distilleries, and arts and crafts.  

OLIVE OIL AND YOUR HEALTH

Fiona's professional background is as a doctor so she knows how important our health is, and how the food we eat is central to our overall wellbeing (physical, mental, and social). That’s why she's passionate about people getting the health benefits of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Adding fresh Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) to your diet has proven results including:

• Reduction in blood pressure.
• Reduction in risk of cardiovascular disease including heart attacks and strokes.
• Reduction in risk of invasive breast cancer.

Freshfield Grove olive oil is proven* to be high in antioxidants which provides these essential health benefits.

*Freshfield Grove EVOO is tested in a NATA accredited laboratory.
