Family Garden Day with Farmer Mikey

This April, we hosted our very first Family Garden Class with Farmer Mikey! Families gathered on a sunny Saturday morning and were greeted with glasses of Isla Rose Brut Rosé before heading out to the gardens. 

The first stop of the day was our Secret Garden, tucked behind rows of Pinot Noir vines. It’s one of four culinary gardens on our estate and home to a variety of seasonal produce and flowers. During the class, families planted potatoes in the raised garden beds, which will be ready to harvest in about two to three months. The kids had fun picking out which potatoes they got to plant in the garden beds, and even more fun covering them with dirt!

The next stop was heading over to our front gardens, where our culinary team visits daily to gather fresh produce and garnishes.

The day wrapped up with a picnic lunch and a scavenger hunt through the garden. As a special treat, the kids got to say hi to our tiniest vineyard residents: our baby chicks!
