WHAT VISITORS HAD TO SAY

"Great food! Great wine! Great people! Great event!"  Karl and Sue Luft, Luft Vineyards (and avid oak tree planters, solar power users, wildlife watchers, and proud CCVT members)

"I had a great time this weekend at the Earth Day Food and Wine Festival.  I think it is very unique to have an event that has the ability to reach the public to show off the values of sustainable agriculture.  I really appreciated the fact that this wasn't just a another wine festival marketing a specific varietal or region, but was part of a bigger vision for the Central Coast." Lino Bozzano, Laetitia Winery (and beneficial insect releaser, bio-diesel user, and long time friend of CCVT)

"The caliber of the food and wines showcased is a real testament to your organization and its mission. It was clear that producers who practice sustainable farming methods truly are the cream of the crop.  Jack Creek, Villa Creek, Saxum, Paraiso, Halter, Talley…just to name a few.  Wow!"  Jennifer Glossner, Upstairs Marketing Group (and proud attendee of a bazillion wine events)

"The Earth Day Food & Wine Festival is the only event of its type in the country - a must-do event for everyone's 2008 calendar!"  Sherry Shahan, International Food, Wine & Travel Writer (and avid west-coast swing dancer)
