Our Mission
Our Mission: A Legacy of Adaptation and Heart
For more than 131 years, the Graber Olive House in Ontario, California has been a place of family, craftsmanship, and community. Founded by C.C. Graber, who first began canning olives by hand, each generation since has carried the legacy forward, finding new ways to adapt, endure, and share the Graber story.
Through the years, the family has faced many historic challenges and every time they found a way through.

Now, The Graber Family is taking a page from those who came before them. In the face of modern challenges they’ve adapted once again — this time by creating a carefully curated collection of specialty olives, estate-pressed extra virgin olive oil, aged balsamic vinegars, and signature tapenades. Every jar and bottle captures the authentic taste of the Graber family’s legacy (pure, bold, and unmistakably from the grove to your table). Our new apparel line also reflects that same uncompromising standard.
Every item you purchase helps preserve this historic landmark and the spirit that built it. It’s more than just a shirt or a cap, it’s a piece of living history, a symbol of resilience and a step toward saving a family legacy with the support of the community that’s always been a part of who we are today.
Together, we can keep the story of the Graber Olive House alive for many future generations.
