ENC Wine Walk Returns to Support Environmental Education
09.21.26
The Environmental Nature Center (ENC) is teaming up with Hi-Time Wine Cellars for an afternoon of wine tasting on Sunday, Sept. 27, from 4 to 7 p.m., with proceeds benefiting local environmental education programs.
Guests will wander the ENC's scenic trails, stopping at tasting stations along the way to sample pours from more than two dozen wineries, including 1853 Old Vine Estate, Ameri, Bigi, Castello di Querceto, Domaine Bousquet, Marcelo Pelleriti, Tenuta Rocca, Wente, Gaia, Rotari, Stemmari and Val d'Oca. Small bites will be served throughout the walk, and Balboa Island guitarist Matt Hurray will provide live instrumental surf music, bringing a taste of Southern California's classic surf sound to the afternoon.
Cap off the walk at the firepit with dessert and a cup of Kean Coffee. Before the event, don't miss the online silent auction, running Sept. 22-27, featuring one of a kind experiences, local goods and more. Proceeds from both the Wine Walk and the auction go directly toward the ENC's environmental education programs for children and families.
Tickets are $115 per person and include tastings, bites and entertainment. Wines poured at the event will be available for purchase through Hi-Time Wine Cellars, with pickup at their Costa Mesa store after the event.
Tickets are limited, and this event is expected to sell out. Reserve your spot at encenter.org.
To contribute to the online auction, visit encenter.org/wine-walk-auction-donation.

Inside My Ritual Diaries

I loved sitting down with Kristina Godfrey and Sara Strasbaugh for The Ritual Diaries, their Substack devoted to conversations with women about the rituals, routines and favorite things that make life better.
We talked about my daily rituals, running, fashion finds, favorite places in Orange County, beauty and wellness favorites, Greer’s OC, Born in OC and more.
The Ritual Diaries is such a great Substack to subscribe to. Kristina and Sara have created a thoughtful and fun space covering wellness, beauty, mindset, business and the everyday things women love.
Thank you, Kristina and Sara, for including me. I loved our conversation!
