THE GIVING SEASON
Celebrate with us.
#WVGIVINGSEASON
Between the breathless rush of harvest and the calm of Cellar Season, we welcome the festive energy of the holidays—and with them a chance to step back, appreciate the beauty and camaraderie around us, and give back to the communities we call home.
Join us throughout November and December for The Giving Season in the Willamette Valley. Tour and taste during Wine Country Thanksgiving, one of Oregon wine country’s longest-running event traditions. Support the Willamette Cares Food Share as our community gives back. And enjoy an abundance of holiday special offers and events in celebration of the festive season.
