A New Life for the Caprona Oil Mill
25/06/2024

“A new life for the ‘Social Oil Mill of Monti Pisani in Caprona’”.
The 50 Canale report tells the story of how the Monte Pisano Oil Mill came to be: an extensive project aimed at fully developing the potential of local olive cultivation.

“Renovating this facility has been an ‘opportunity to improve the area and provide olive growers with a space to press their olives and obtain the best possible oil.
This is a first step in a journey aimed at creating optimal conditions to revitalize the local economy, particularly the olive oil production chain, a sector that boasts centuries of tradition here’”.

Leonardo Paolino – CEO Monte Pisano Oil Mill

A revival plan that has already begun with the cleanup and “elimination of unpleasant odors in the” area surrounding the facility, which had been neglected for some time: a necessary first step to improve the quality of life and represent a new direction for the territory.

“The area where the new Monte Pisano Oil Mill is being established has long needed significant investment, and this is already a great achievement: the facility will see a major shift in operations, finally being used more effectively and within a shared ‘Monte Pisano’ dimension that leads to a unified territorial identity.
I’m confident that we’ll see returns in the short term, and the first to benefit will be those who live and work in this area.”
