What an amazing event the 10th anniversary of the GastroVino Food and Wine Festival was! The joy and reverie were palpable as we all imbibed the best wine and food that this area has to offer. Nothing makes us happier than to enjoy festivities knowing that we are treading lightly on the earth, and we so enjoyed how much effort went into making this a single-use plastic free and low waste event.
