The Friends of Nevada Organics is holding an organic wine tasting in Reno on Friday, January 27, 2012 from 5-7pm at Whole Foods Market (6139 S Virginia St). Meet local Nevada organic farmers and producers, taste their beer, wine and other spirits and help raise money for the Friends of Nevada Organics in the process. Tickets are just $10 per person, which entitles each holder (ages 21 or older) to five different tastings as well as a complimentary glass (beer or wine).
The Friends of Nevada Organics’ goal is to teach the public about the benefits of living organically. In addition to organic farming, the FNO focuses on landscaping, school gardening, food service and other organic programs. Through public and private donations as well as grants from the government, this 501C3 educational organization distributes funds to local organic groups who also promote organic living. They also provide information to traditional Nevada farmers and processors on how to convert their farms to organic if they are so inclined.
If you are not a wine aficionado, you may still be interested in trying out organic tea or coffee from local Reno farmers. There may even be some food tastings available from some of the local organic farmers at the event. Bird owners might be interested in checking out the organic sprouted seed mix one of our local Reno area producers sells. It is an incredible healthy alternative to processed bird feed.
Try the organic wine tasting in Reno this Friday, January 27, 2012 from 5-7pm at Whole Foods on Virginia Street. Help raise money for the Friends of Nevada Organics, learn about the benefits of organic farming from local farmers and producers and taste some fantastic local organic beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea and more. Just one more reason Reno is such a great place to live!
