Olive Tree Closes After 15 Years | Kansas City News

After 15 years of pouring her heart into Kansas City’s culinary scene, Olive Tree owner Mindy Riley is closing the doors — but not without a heartfelt farewell. What began as a dream sparked by a vacation shop and evolved into a beloved community hub for infused oils, spices, and recipes, is now making way for her next big passion: laser engraving, embroidery, and personalized gifts. The side hustle turned booming business has left her with no choice but to say goodbye to the store she calls her “love letter to Kansas City.” Everything’s on sale — from products to fixtures — as she invites fans to come celebrate, shop, and help clear out the space before the final curtain. With deep gratitude and a smile, Riley reflects on friendships forged, recipes shared, and the privilege of serving her city — all while eagerly stepping into this new chapter.
