Hi-Time
When shopping with Hi-Time Wine Cellars, instead of the usual 1% back that their loyal customers enjoy, the family-owned business has agreed to donate 10% of the monthly sales on all ENC family and friend purchases back to the Environmental Nature Center and ENC Nature Preschool. Simply give the Center’s number – 949-645-8489 – at checkout.
There are also a number of restaurants participating in the Virtual SavorOC at the Environmental Center's Virtual Spring Faire May 11 – 17. Local restaurants participating in their Virtual Savor OC include Mi Casa, Pink Salt Catering, Al’s New York Café, Kean Coffee, Sensitive Sweets, Suzanne’s Catering, Playa Mesa, Dory Deli, Helmsman Ale House, the Country Club, Black Market Bakery, Sessions West Coast Deli and Wahoo’s!
Participating restaurants will provide fun, short videos during the Faire week, so viewers can learn how to cook just like a chef! Check the schedule to see when they will be posted to our YouTube channel. Many of their restaurant sponsors are creating “ENC Spring Faire Specials” for ENC members and supporters to order during the week of May 11-17 (or a certain day or days during that span).
