It’s Spring at Gervasi! Finally!
After an exceptionally long, cold, snowy and icy winter, spring is about to arrive in Ohio, Stark County, and Gervasi Vineyard Resort & Spa (GV). Birds are singing, bees are buzzing, and flowers will soon be blooming everywhere around the property at GV.
Of course, the rabbits are hopping around GV and Twisted Olive. The furry bunnies are just in time for an Easter Bunny visit at the Twisted Olive.
Many springtime events are scheduled at GV this year that are in addition to the ongoing tastings and tours, culinary classes and this year’s 15th Anniversary special events.
