Natural Areas Wine Tours 2008 | Wine tastings with a wild side! Co-sponsored by The Cleveland Museum of Natural History and Ohio Wine Producers Association
We've paired tours of five of The Cleveland Museum of Natural History's natural areas with opportunities to taste the vintages produced by several Northern Ohio wineries. See rare plants and animals in their spectacular natural habitats, then discover the unique qualities of Ohio wines. Tasting wine has never been so wild! Each trip is $35.00 per person.
Kelleys Island | Saturday, August 23, 2008 Tour several of the Museum's natural areas and the famous glacial grooves on Kelleys Island. The limestone underlying this Lake Erie island has created habitats that exist nowhere else in the state and support a host of unique animals and plants. Lunch and a wine-tasting at a private cottage follow, featuring wines from Firelands Winery in Sandusky. NOTE: Participants in the Kelleys Island trip must pay their own ferry fees to the Island and provide their own transportation once on the Island. Sites to be visited are not within walking distance of the ferry landing. For rate information visit www.kelleysislandferry.com or call 419-798-9763. Plan to travel to the Island on the 10:00 a.m. ferry.
About the Natural Areas Wine Tour: Trips will be limited to 30 participants and will have three or four group leaders to make them more meaningful. Natural areas tours will start at 10 a.m. and end around noon. Afterward, participants will travel to the designated winery or private cottage for lunch and a wine tasting. Group leaders will recap the morning’s events and answer questions about the natural areas visited. Each trip is $35 per person. A bed-and-breakfast package will be available for those who wish to stay for the night. BONUS: Those who register and pay for all five trips in advance will receive a beautifully carved wooden walking stick.
