A Lifelong Passion
for Olive Trees
Four generations of love, wisdom, and dedication—because every tree tells a story, and every drop holds a legacy
A Lifelong Passion for Olive Trees
For over a century, the Morabito family has been deeply rooted in the world of olive oil. Since 1900, in the sun-drenched region of Calabria, our family has cultivated a legacy of dedication to these extraordinary trees and the precious oil they produce.
When I moved from my native Italy to California, I carried with me not only a deep love for olive trees but also generations of knowledge about their care and cultivation. The Mediterranean-like climate of California welcomed me, and here, I found a second home—one where my passion could grow and flourish.
With this vision, I founded Olive Tree Love, a name that reflects my lifelong devotion to these remarkable trees and their profound significance to humanity. Olive trees symbolize resilience, friendship, reconciliation, healing, light, victory, abundance, and above all, peace. As a fourth-generation olive grower, my connection to them is not just professional—it is a heritage, a responsibility, and a privilege.
My work is dedicated to the art of caring for olive trees—through expert pruning, maintenance, and personalized attention. I believe every olive tree is unique, and each deserves meticulous care to ensure its health, longevity, and productivity. These ancient sentinels of history and tradition deserve nothing less than excellence.
By combining time-honored techniques with customized solutions, I ensure that every tree thrives, maintaining its natural balance and strength for generations to come.
If you share my love for olive trees and wish to preserve their beauty and vitality, I am here to help—with expert, dedicated care that honors their unique character.

Cultivating Excellence in Olive Tree Care
The Olive Whisperer: Expert care for your olive trees, rooted in passion
For a century, my family has lived in harmony with olive trees—rooted in Calabria, where my great-grandfather first pressed golden oil from sun-drenched fruit. These trees carried our family’s story: love, sacrifice, and pride passed through generations.
When I moved to California, I brought this heritage with me—not just knowledge, but heart and centuries of tradition.Olive Tree Love was born from this devotion. It’s not merely a business, but my way of honoring the past while nurturing a future where trees and people flourish together.

FAQ
Answering Your Queries
When is the best time to prune my trees?
The optimal time to prune most trees is during late winter or early spring, while they are dormant. This timing helps minimize stress and reduces the risk of disease. However, dead or diseased branches can be removed at any time of year.
Can improper pruning harm or kill my tree?
Yes, incorrect pruning techniques—such as over-pruning, topping, or cutting at the wrong time—can weaken a tree, making it more susceptible to pests, diseases, and structural issues. In severe cases, it can lead to the tree’s decline or death.
How much of the tree can I safely prune at once?
It’s generally recommended not to remove more than 25% of a tree’s canopy in a single year. Exceeding this can stress the tree and impede its ability to photosynthesize effectively.
