Description: There is an $8 charge for the walk which includes Il Fiorello’s seasonal scones, coffee service, and infused water served in the shady portico after the walk. We will divide up into two groups and walk the perimeter of the property, through the groves, and along the irrigation canal for approximately two hours. Over fifty species of birds have been seen on the property, including bald and golden eagles and many other species of raptors, water birds, passerines, and owls.
Space is limited to 20 participants, and reservations are required. Contact Jane Hicks at hixholtz@earthlink.net or 707-553-8901 by Saturday, March 11, 2017 to reserve your space. Driving directions will be provided upon registration.
Il Fiorello’s shop will be open after the walk, so bring cash or credit card if you would like to purchase their milled-onsite local olive oils, balsamic vinegars, and other items.
Please note: This is a working farm and commercial food facility. The terrain is uneven and may have animal holes. Due to commercial food licensing requirements, no outside food may be brought into the property due to food safety concerns.
