Gold Ridge Organic Farms was started by Brooke Hazen in 2001, when he fell in love with a parcel of pasture land in West Sonoma County. The farm is located 1.5 hours north of San Francisco, in the rolling hills of Sebastopol, where coastal breezes and optimal soils provide ideal growing conditions for 70 acres of olives. We grow our olives using organic farming methods and then press them into four organic olive oils on-site in our certified organic state-of-the-art Italian Rapanelli mill.
