2024 Projects

  • Earth Festival

    Earth Festival is a fun, family-friendly, interactive event featuring exhibitors, vendors, activities and workshops with an environmental theme. OCCA partners with local, environmental organizations to put on the best festival for the surrounding community.

    In 2024 the event will take place on Saturday, April 20th from 10 am- 3 pm at the Milford School. More Information coming soon!

  • Community Wide Outreach

    OCCA spends time throughout the year at local events, talking about our mission and connecting with the public. If you have an event coming up, we would love to come out and set up a table. Contact Shelby at 607-547-4488 and let us know about your event.

  • Community Appreciation and Annual Events

    In 2023, we were thrilled to bring back our large-scale, in-person events and add new programs to our slate. In October, we introduced the community appreciation day where OCCA hosted various activities and lunch at Betty and Wilbur Davis State Park. Everyone is excited to plan a similar event in 2024.

    We hosted the 'Mohican Meet and Mingle' in June to kick off the summer and announce the Conservationist of the Year. The Conservationist of the Year award has been an annual tradition for OCCA, which had been on pause during COVID-19. If you know someone who goes above and beyond in the field of conservation, feel free to pass their name along.

    Be sure to watch the calendar in 2024 for all of these large-scale community wide events.
