A Brief His­to­ry of Sims TLC Olive Oil

Since 1972, Gary and Susan Sims have pro­vid­ed pre­mi­um health care ser­vices for trees. Along with their son, Kevin, and daugh­ter-in-law, Nicole, the Sims have ded­i­cat­ed their lives to the preser­va­tion of trees.

In 2015, the Sims fam­i­ly pur­chased the her­itage Meier Olive Orchard. This his­tor­i­cal orchard began in 1912 with Thomas Watkins plant­i­ng the trees as a con­di­tion of inher­it­ing the prop­er­ty. In 1950, the trees came under the care of Robert Meier who began pro­duc­ing high-qual­i­ty olive oil until his death, at 92, in 2009. 

Restora­tion projects will help fur­ther edu­ca­tion efforts as the Sims fam­i­ly pre­pares to restore old build­ings to host sem­i­nars, work­shops, and antique items. Edu­ca­tion­al tours will include the antique stone olive mill pur­chased by Mr. Meier.
