Climate, geography and altitude are instrumental to grow times and quality of olives. The village, Soulinari, Greece is only a few miles from the founding epicenter of the Koroneiki olive variety; far enough inland not to be affected by the Mediterranean salt air and Soulinari rests at an altitude 300m above sea level producing incomparable Koroneiki olives. Our olives are harvested by hand using battery powered harvesters, ensuring virtually no carbon footprint. We process our olives in the absence of heat and rely on nature to recycle water and nutrients to the soil. Our olives are Ice Pressed the same day to ensure near flawless acidity! Message from the Founder, MaryRuth Ghiyam My name is MaryRuth and since 2006, I have dedicated my life to health. After my father and brother passed away from heart conditions, my mother became ill with 2 benign brain tumors, and I realized I had to find a way to help my mother heal. At that time, it was the turning point in the economy; we lost everything. Determined to take care of my mother, I traveled the country to learn about the body’s path to healing itself and became a Certified Health Educator, Nutritional Consultant, and later I started a program called The MaryRuth Method. The program helped people reach their ideal weight and better health by teaching them how the digestive tract serves as our “second brain.” In just 1 year, hundreds of people signed up with me to achieve their ideal weight, health & energy! The MaryRuth Method spread so quickly. Soon after, I wanted to develop a line of healthy supplements, made with delicious, wholesome ingredients, that I would feel good about giving my own family and clients.
