Annual Holiday Food Drive
We are proud to announce our fourth annual Holiday Food Drive to support Second Harvest Food Bank. Second Harvest provides food to an average of 207,000 individuals each month (up from 176,000 this time last year). Of those they serve, 67% are families with children and 12% are senior citizens. Please help us feed our neighbors during these tough economic times. As our way of saying thank you for your support, when you bring any non-perishable food item into our Tasting Room through Sunday, December 20th you will receive a coupon good for 25% off any single bottle purchase.
