June 28 was a warm summer evening with that golden slanting light illuminating the beautiful gardens of Blue Vista Farm for our first-ever wine-tasting benefit event.
Ellen Kwiatkowski and Eric Carlson, owners of Blue Vista Farm hosted the event. The wine was donated by Saratoga Distributors.
Blue Vista Farm is one of the farms preserved forever by the Town of Bayfield's Farmland Preservation Program administered by the BRC. It is such a lovely site for a get-together. Tables were scattered about and filled with smoked fish, caviar, cheeses, fruit and other delectables prepared and donated by area businesses and BRC members.
It was almost like a dream, the setting with tables scattered on the lawn covered with vintage table cloths and people holding sparkling glasses of wine.
Thank you to everyone who made this event possible. The silent auction and the winetasting donations raised over $2000 for our conservation work.
