This Heritage Month, we shine a spotlight on the roots of South Africa’s olive oil industry and its place in our cultural identity. Joining us is Wendy Peterson, CEO of SA Olive, to share insights on the upcoming SA Olive Awards, hosted at the historic Diemersfontein estate in Wellington. From the legacy of olive growing that dates back to Jan van Riebeeck in 1661, to the recognition of excellence and innovation among today’s producers, this conversation explores how agriculture, culture, and heritage intersect in a celebration of South African pride.
