Celebration of Harvest

A superior wine region with breathtaking views of the American Riviera — what could be better?

Labor Day Weekend may mark the end of summer, but around here, we don't mind. The best way to welcome the change of season is by celebrating the grape harvest and indulging in a food and wine experience like no other.

Attend the Santa Barbara Celebration of Harvest A four day harvest celebration in Santa Barbara Wine Country featuring the Taste of Santa Barbara, wine dinners, vineyard excursions, winery open houses, and the Harvest Experience Passport.

Take a Cooking Class with Market Forays. Created by Laurence Hauben, Market Forays offers more than cooking classes. It opens a window into a more gracious, relaxed, and happier way of life. Sharing the bounty of local, seasonal foods is just the beginning.

Dine at The Lark, Loquita, or Bouchon. The essential foodie restaurants – all of your senses will be awakened and pleased by the creative pairings, wide selection of small and large plates, and exquisite wine lists.
