The world is a strange place right now – so how are you doing? No, really, how are you coping? Is your family well? Are you staying in high spirits? Eating healthy and plentiful? Exercising and/or meditating? Taking care of your body, mind, and soul? This is so important now more than ever, as we navigate through this unusual time in our world’s history.

Just this past weekend, Wine Fest returned to our little grape-filled town, also known as the Wine Country Harvest Festival, which is held near the end of September every year.
