Two bottles of Fresh Press Farms oils, one olive and one sunflower, beside sliced bread on a wooden board. A small dish of oil is visible.

Summer in Kentucky means longer days, patio dinners, and all the fresh produce we can get our hands on. So when we received two beautiful bottles of olive oil from Fresh Press Farms, we knew it was the perfect excuse to whip up a dish that’s simple, seasonal, and packed with flavor.


While Fresh Press Farms is based in Georgia, their mission fits right in with what we love here at Kentucky Taste Buds — quality ingredients, Southern charm, and products that support a healthy, happy lifestyle. And did we mention how cute the bottles are? These eco-friendly aluminum bottles are as stylish as they are practical (hello, pantry goals!).


💛Why We’re Loving Fresh Press Farms

Aside from tasting amazing, this oil is:


• Cold-pressed, which helps keep nutrients and flavor intact


• Locally grown and produced in the U.S.


• Versatile — we’ve used it for roasting, sautéing, salad dressings, and even dipping bread


• Sustainably packaged in recyclable aluminum


It’s the kind of pantry staple that makes your cooking feel just a little more special.
