Christine Ryan-Chapple and Neville Chapple planted the first olives on Wollundry Grove in October 1998, only a few months after aquiring the property. These 1,300 trees were followed by 700 the following year, with a final planting of 75 in 2003.

Originally the idea was to sell the olive fruit to processors, but the exceptional growth and health of the trees, as well as the increasing demand for high quality olive oil, inspired the decision to create a Wollundry Grove range of olive products.

Today, the olive grove, its development and maintenance, is the principal activity on the property.

The farm, of nearly 11.5 hectares, is in a region of gently sloping terrain dotted with majestic eucalypts, about 15 kilometres north east of Wagga Wagga.
