Description

Get a taste of what Corning has to offer! First, explore Olive City Agriculture & Nature Center, a 275-acre nature sanctuary in Corning where over 100 bird species take advantage of restored wetlands, vernal pools, and uplands, and Burrowing Owls winter in artificial burrows. Next, we'll take a short drive over to Corning Olive Oil Company where we'll take a tour of the facility, see olives being pressed, and do some tasting of the finished product. Olive oil and other products will be available for sale. Bring your binoculars and wear hiking boots.
