A Taste of the Greenbelt
To celebrate the autumn bounty of local farms and vineyards while raising money for and awareness of the Bay Area's remaining open spaces, the Greenbelt Alliance is sponsoring "A Taste of the Greenbelt," a food- and wine-tasting event on Oct. 15, from 1 to 4 p.m. at The Opera House, at 140 W. Main St. in Los Gatos.
Founded in 1958, the nonprofit Greenbelt Alliance seeks to slow urban sprawl and preserve greenbelts--areas of farms, parks and open space preserves--throughout the greater Bay Area.
This month's fundraiser features a variety of wines from Bay Area vineyards; meals prepared by chefs from local gourmet restaurants; and fresh produce and other items from four Greenbelt farms: Del Fresh Produce, Frog Hollow Farm, From the Ground/America Fresh and J & P Farms.
While eating and drinking, those attending can also listen to live music, participate in a silent auction, or view a photography show and sale.
For tickets, call 408.983.0539, or visit www.greenbelt.org on the Internet.
