WESTFIED – The Concord Grape Belt Heritage Association, Inc. announces the Memorial Day Weekend opening of an information center, retail outlet, and tasting room at the Grape Discovery Center on Route 20, just west of the Village of Westfield.
Situated in the heart of the Concord Grape Belt, the Grape Discovery Center is the cornerstone project for the Concord Grape Belt Heritage Association. It is intended to draw travelers off interstate 90 to stop and smell the grapes in season, taste local agricultural products, and learn about attractions in this area that supports 30,000 acres of grapes between Silver Creek, NY and Harborcreek, PA.
In a final phase, expected to be completed by fall, an exhibit area will teach people about the history and production process of grapes for juice, wine, jelly, and new products like grape seed oil.
Starting Saturday, May 25th, the Grape Discovery Center will be open 10 am – 6 pm, seven days per week. The Tasting Room at the Grape Discovery Center will regularly feature wines from Lake Erie Wine Country, grape juice and sparkling grape juice, as well as wine and grape juice slushies.
Admission to the Grape Discovery Center is free as is the available Wi-Fi. For more information and a schedule of upcoming demonstrations and workshops, visit www.grapediscoverycenter.com or call 716-326-2003.
