The Naked Pig might well be the smallest restaurant in Santa Rosa, though the tiny kitchen hasn’t cramped the style of the owners, Dalia Martinez and Jason Sakach, a husband and wife team, who bounce culinary ideas off one another and love the work that they do. That’s apparent to…
Our Slow Food Russian River Leaders meeting the other night reminded me of Lily Tomlin. I saw her live in LA when she was first developing the bag lady character. Remember her? Laughing and crying in the dark at the same time – that’s what Lily could do for us…
For years, whenever I heard anyone mention the number 64 I thought of the Beatles’ song, “When I’m Sixty-Four,” which has the refrain, “will you still need me, will you still feed me when I’m sixty-four?” These days when I hear that same number, I think about Prop 64. Prop…
I just have to rant and rave for a minute and you are my victims! I just came from a 3 hour conversation about food waste. The Sonoma County Health Services and Agriculture departments had people there educating us about the regulations surrounding food. Here is the message (my…
I drove to Grass Valley to visit my sister recently. While driving along Highway 49 I noticed a horse galloping along the side of the road, obviously escaped from its enclosure. It was either enjoying its new-found freedom or very frightened, or both. I also saw a vehicle marked “Nevada County Animal Control,” so I slowed and came to a halt, stopping…
Last Saturday we pressed 3,065 pounds of apples! When I parked in our little lot at the Luther Burbank Gold Ridge Experiment Farm, at 12:30pm, to volunteer, I could hear the sound of the apple press chugging away in the distance. The air was scented with apples. When I approached our…
Summer Blackberries During late summer in Sonoma County, wild blackberries are nearly inescapable. Fresh and much better than anything you can buy from the store.

Got Cider? visitors ask at the 2016 Gravenstein Apple Fair Got Cider Past “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” the proverb goes. And when life gives you apples, make apple pie, apple juice, applesauce, and apple art. Moreover, now more than ever before, you make hard cider. “Got cider?”, people often ask,…

🎥 Movies That Matter: Children of the Vine | 🍿 Little Saint Screening
DaVero + Patagonia Present Film + Director Discussion
Wednesday 5.10 // Doors 5:30 pm | Film: 6:00 pm
We invite you to a special screening of what we think is a truly important film.
Children of the Vine is a documentary that carefully and thoughtfully walks you through the massive unintended consequences of the widespread use of glyphosate (a.k.a. RoundUp). It focuses on the impact on vineyard workers, but makes unambiguously clear the ramifications for farm workers, consumers, future generations, and the planet.
This solution driven documentary will highlight more sustainable large scale farming practices capable of feeding the world.
Seating is limited, so be sure to purchase your tickets soon!
