Pouring on the Goodness
At Rafter Eleven, we love our oil … but not just any oil. Olive oil has been a staple in Mediterranean cuisine for centuries, as well as in our kitchen. This golden liquid is extracted from the fruit of the olive tree, and its use dates to ancient times. The ancient Greeks and Romans used olive oil not only for cooking but also for its medicinal properties. Today, olive oil is celebrated for its rich flavor, versatility, and numerous health benefits.

Between them, Maricor and Richard Skladzien have lived in lots of places: Arkansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, and California.
