The 2025 Olive Harvest in Palestine — A Season of Roots & Resilience

A Heritage Written in Olive Trees

Every October, as cooler air returns to the hills of Palestine, a familiar tradition comes to life. Families gather in their ancestral groves — grandparents, parents, children — all working together beneath the shade of trees that have stood for centuries.

For Palestinians, olives are not just a crop.
They are identity, history, home.

This year’s harvest carries that same spirit of resilience and celebration. Baskets fill with fruit. Fresh olives drop into the hands of those who nurture them. Laughter echoes through the groves. It is a moment where the bond between land and people feels unbreakable.

The Heart of Livelihood

Olive trees make up nearly half of Palestine’s agricultural land, providing income to tens of thousands of families. From olive oil to soap, from skincare to cuisine — olives fuel daily life and sustain rural communities.

At Olive & Foam, we proudly source premium Palestinian olive oil — supporting the families and skilled farmers who preserve this heritage, season after season.

A Year Marked by Challenges

Despite the joy of harvest, this season has not been easy.

Farmers continue to face:

• Limited access to groves

• Drought and shifting climate conditions

• Threats to trees and land in several areas

• Rising farming and milling costs

Yet, the people remain steadfast. The olive tree — symbol of صمود sumoud (steadfast perseverance) — keeps growing. And Palestinians keep harvesting.

Because to harvest an olive is to claim presence, belonging, and hope.
