organic AND environmentally friendly olive oil


Explanation:
Es ecológico porque desde hace más de diez años los olivos han crecido libres de insecticidas, pesticidas y abonos de síntesis, en perfecta armonía con el ecosistema.
www.terra.org/html/s/servicios/ficha.php?id=157

Our organic extra virgin olive oil, made using ecological farming techniques, comes in a glass bottle, red label, and our regular semi-organic oil comes in PET containers, with a green label.
