Our background
After many years of experience alongside his father Domenico, in 1992 Antonino, whose family had been involved in agriculture for at least a century, turned the family farm into organic.
It was the natural route of a path started with his family whose cultivation philosophy and guidelines were already totally centered on natural growing methods. In the same years he established Mediterranea Foods to introduce his organic productions in the organic market.
At the beginning the company pioneered the organic scenario with its own production of organic extra virgin olive oil, that represents still today its core business, and after more than 20 years in the organic world, the company represents today an expertise in Mediterranean organic specialties coming only from Italian cultivations. Company primary goal is to produce according to the highest quality organic standards. Everyday traditional harvesting methods and modern processing are carried out to produce the whole range of our high quality specialties. Harvesting is carried out carefully, taking care of fields trees and workers, trying to support and give impetus to the spread of organic agriculture. The concrete result of our scrupulous manufacturing process are our pure and natural products exclusively organic, rich in the traditional Mediterranean style.

Millenarium Extra Virgin Demeter Olive Oil Grand Cru
Each bottle is unique
Our olive culture has its roots in a millennial history that has come down to us through plants that have lived for centuries and millennia.
Each bottle is unique, marked with a distinctive number, and is the result of a sensory research as this oil is produced exclusively with Ottobratica olives, a native variety.
They belong to that place, where they express the profound essence of a story told by the wind blowing through their silver leaves as early as the eighth century BC. At the time, the sacred olive tree was already cultivated in the Locri Epizefiri colony, and then in the ancient Metauria (today’s GioiaTauro), when the temple was already dedicated to Minerva, to whom, as is known, the olive tree was consecrated.
Produced from the millennial olive trees
Its medium-intense fruity profile of green-picked olives has a perfect balance.
The characteristic scent of the Ottobratica variety has accents of field grass, golden apple and unripe tomato with distant hints of wild thistle.
Producing this biodynamic oil has meant to us seeing our land and our trees as part of a complex universe, understanding the cosmic laws and influences, stories and forces that govern all living beings, planets and moons, trying to create the right interconnection among land, history and sky.

Italian organic extra virgin olive oil from biodynamic agriculture - intense fruity DEMETER -
Bioleificio San Francesco biodynamic Extra Virgin Olive Oil was born from the dream of producing an excellent extra virgin olive oil in an enchanting place. Thanks to this dream, we started the first biodynamic olive growing pilot project in Calabria. The native cultivar olives produced at the biodynamic farm, located between the hills and the sea and pampered in the Serre national park, are harvested when ripening has just begun and pressed a few steps from the trees, at our San Francesco oil mill, cuddled in the arms of the WWF oasis, almost as if it were an integral part of nature itself. We thus obtain an excellent extra virgin olive oil with a refined and delicate taste, rich in biodynamic energy and the Southern Italy’s sun, dedicated to those who believe in the ancestral poetry of the biodynamic method.
