It’s here at last! Summer’s extended heat delayed our fall color, but now our Lake County vineyards, hills, and Cobb Mountain are bursting with nature’s palette. You don’t have to travel back east to get your fill of “leaf peeping”, when we’re just a 2-hour drive away from the greater Bay Area, and Sacramento. Now is a great time to plan your autumn getaway, and Explore California’s North of Ordinary Region.

The arrival of November marks the beginning of American Indian Heritage month, and we are proud to celebrate Lake County’s rich indigenous Pomo culture. The seven Pomo tribes that call this region their home today are direct descendants of the Pomos that have inhabited the Clear Lake area for over 11,800 years, and are known especially for their intricate basketry made from lakeshore tule grass and other native plants and feathers. This beautiful tribal dance ceremony was performed by members of the Lake County Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians of the Big Valley Rancheria, California, and Scotts Valley Band of Pomo Indians at the opening of Xabatin Community Park in Lakeport last November.

Fall in Lake County wine country is a thing to behold, as our vineyards stretch into acres of vibrant color that blanket the landscape. Be sure to soak in the beauty as you sample our award-winning vintages at local tasting rooms across the region. There’s never been a better season to sip and savor the best we have to offer! *winery map link in our Bio 🍷

Our Lake County wine grape harvest may be over, but our local olive growers are just ramping up to begin! The orchards are brimming with ripe olives again this year, along with the promise of the delicious fresh-pressed oils they will produce. Keep your eyes peeled for the award-winning offerings to come at Chacewater Winery & Olive Mill, and Campodonico Olive Farm (both certified organic growers) who continue to put our region on the map of culinary excellence at its best!
