THIS WEEK: Podcast Episode 3—How Do you Like Them Apples?; With Love from Sonoma County—Gold Ridge Organic Farms’ New Olive Oil collection makes its debut; get tix now for The Gravenstein Apple Fair
We’re deep into summer now, with its high temps and so many summer activities. One traditional favorite has to be the upcoming Gravenstein Apple Fair in Sebastopol. Listen to our podcast and let Clark Wolf and Daedalus Howell convince you to enter the pie contest. Speaking of Sebastopol, make some time for an outing to Gold Ridge Organic Farm for a tour of the apples and olives and to pick up a few bottles of their newly launched collection of olive oils, which I’ve been drizzling on everything from zucchini pizza to raspberries and cream since my tasting last weekend. A few days ago, I even found my teenage son in the kitchen dipping Della Fattoria Meyer Lemon Rosemary bread into the Tuscan Oil for a snack, it’s so good! Read more about all the things below.
THIS WEEK’S PODCAST: How Do You Like Them Apples?
In this episode of our podcast, Clark and Daedalus preview the Gravenstein Apple Fair, happening Saturday + Sunday, August 8 and 9 at Ragle Ranch Park, Sebastopol. They’ll tell all, from its amateur and professional pie contests to its deep roots in Sonoma County agriculture. They also banter about the Gravenstein’s local legacy, the year of the woman farmer, zero-waste traditions and the community effort behind one of Sebastopol’s most beloved annual events.
