Odyssey is all about olives


As part of the annual Season of the Olive, Olive Odyssey will celebrate the salty fruit with a weekend of activities at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards. The event is set for Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 18 and 19, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily.

Experience the olive in old-world style with host Don “The Olive Guy” Landis and a gathering of olive enthusiasts at an Olive Odyssey. Olive curers offer their unique delicacies and share their curing recipes in the Tuscan courtyard at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards. Olive notables and olive tree experts will talk about the fruit and answer questions. The Olive Press will offer tours of the olive mill, tastings of their many flavors and styles of olive oil and open their olive gift shop to browse.
