From Sheep to Olive Oil | Auckland News

from Auckland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

After forty years of sheep and beef farming, Diana and Grant Crosse are chasing a new dream—olive oil—with their Kāpiti Olive Oil business. Using their farming know-how alongside drones and modern tech, they’ve found olive trees surprisingly forgiving compared to livestock. No wandering lambs, no rushing to the truck—just weather-watching, market stalls, and award-winning oil. With one trophy left to win (Best Extra Virgin in NZ), Grant’s got his eyes on retirement… and Diana’s ready to hold him to it.
