Last year FEVOO, a festival and educational experience for consumer, chefs, food service industry and media was held in Sydney to launch the new season’s oils. “FEVOO”, which means Fresh Extra Virgin Olive Oil, was the brain child of Amanda Bailey and was a huge success with ongoing benefits for the industry. Bailey is working on a format that can be rolled out in other states this year, with events already being considered for WA and SA.
