Olive Lovers Rejoice!

Lamorindans can learn about everything olive, from the chemistry of olive oil to how to make olive branch crowns and wreaths or create olive-inspired recipes, at the 6th Annual Orinda Olive Festival from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 4 at the Wagner Ranch Nature Area, 350 Camino Pablo in Orinda. This free, family-friendly event, sponsored by the Friends of Wagner Ranch Nature Area, celebrates olives, of course, as well as the historic Wagner Ranch, which includes its 130-year-old Mission Olive Grove. Optional donations support outdoor, hands-on environmental science and social studies programs for K-5 Orinda Unified School District students. Multiple vendors will offer samples of olives, olive oils and vinegars, docents will provide tours of the 18-acre property, and there will be arts and crafts, games, food and live music for everyone to enjoy.
