We will leave after the service on Sunday, July 28th, about 11:45. Carpooling at your discretion. Drive time is about 40 minutes.
Based on participant input, we’re adding West Hills Vineyards to our schedule this month (Thanks Suzanne & Carolyn)!
West Hills Vineyard is an historical gathering place on the grounds of the 1858 home of Governor Ike. L. Patterson (18th governor). The website states, “as long-time locals, when the opportunity to acquire a piece of Polk County history presented itself, we couldn’t pass it by. As we embark on this historic landscape’s next chapter, our mission is to grow grapes with regenerative practices that restore and breathe new life into fields that were once over-farmed and left neglected for many years.”
The vineyard features a tasting room with classic wines and a chef prepared seasonal menu (no outside food). Those with the wine passport will get a tasting flight of 4 wines. The menu is very appealing for lunch with salads, sandwiches, etc. West Hills offers an array of red, white and rose wines with prices ranging from $28 to $70.
Please RSVP to Heather E if you want to attend. Heather will send a confirmation email to participants on Saturday.
Nice, relaxed way to get to know other UU’s.
