Dazzling New Year Gold Flecked Olive Oil

Homegrown and Handmade gourmet and textile gifts are all individually handmade to order by the owner/designer, Kallista Bolton, from her olive farm in southern Western Australia. Kallista makes beautiful, useful and wholesome items for heartfelt gifting. All pieces are carefully made in the quiet cottage studio or nearby commercial kitchen. The small crop of olive oil grows sustainably using biodynamic principles, and the textiles reflect a belief that even everyday items made with a beautiful aesthetic can enrich your home and daily experiences. Kallista opted out of a hectic career in Sydney in search of a simple life in the country. Along with her husband and their three children, the family found their slice of heaven in the shape of a 10 acre olive farm in country Western Australia. The Homegrown and Handmade venture evolved in early 2010 from Kallista's desire, as a parent, to work from home. Fusing her accumulated skills from university business study, with cooking and sewing skills learned from her mother and real work place regional marketing experience, plus a bit of resourcefulness, Kallista has created an enterprise that fits snugly alongside motherhood.
