The grove was established in 2002. There are 1100 olive trees on 3.6 ha.The main varieties include Frantoio and Leccino with some Picual, Coratina, Picholine, and Barnea.
The olives are hand picked or picked with handheld picking rakes. Picking usually takes place between April and June.
The grove is tucked behind the sand dunes in Killiecrankie on the north east tip of Flinders Island.
