Located in Opio, 10 minutes from our gites www.locations-06.fr<\/a> and our farmer-processor company www.terroir-06.fr<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For 7 generations, the Moulin d\u2019Opio belonged to the Michel family. The wheel of the traditional mill powered by the water of the Brague turned quietly as time went by, until the day when Mr. Roger Michel inherited this business. He decided to shake up habits by installing a more productive traditional mill. When Roger Michel\u2019s daughter, Christine took over this family business, she decided in turn to expand the mill with modern facilities. <\/p>\n

Then this mill had to close.<\/p>\n

After a two-year hiatus, the mill was bought by the Sophia-Antipolis Urban Community and reopens by appointment for the crushing of olives.
Thus, olives from small producers and individuals are pressed at the mill. Even from a very small quantity of olives, everyone can go there and leave with oil.
A certain quantity of olives is needed to have your “own” oil, otherwise the olive bringer leaves with a quota of oil weight.
Before, you could notice the installation of the shop in the old mill dating from the 15th<\/sup> century where you can admire the old stone presses as well as the old millstones once driven by wooden gears that have remained intact since their last use 2 centuries ago. <\/p>\n

TERROIR-06 offers you its products from its organic crops including its olive oil<\/a> and olive paste, plain or flavored, which you can find on our website www.terroir-06.fr<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
