Lynmar Winery produces world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay which reflect the character of the Russian River Valley appellation, and the terroir of their Quail Hill Vineyard. Quail Hill has long been recognized as a stellar vineyard in the region, and is now the exclusive source for Lynmar Reserve and Estate wines, as well as the foundation of their appellation-designated wines.

Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary is a Japanese-style retreat with beautiful bonsai and bamboo gardens. Close to Northern California's breathtaking Sonoma Coast, wine country and redwoods, Osmosis is situated in a great destination spot with superb lodging nearby and many events and activities to choose from.

Sonoma Biologics is dedicated to soil fertility through the use of beneficial bacteria and fermentation. Vineyards, commercial farms and backyard growers reap the benefits of beneficial bacteria and the use of fermentation to grow stable, flourishing colonies of the organisms needed to create a healthy, happy soil-food web while naturally dealing with all types of pests. (Web site in development.)

Redwood Hill Farm is celebrating 40 years of making award-winning and Humane Certified goat milk products here in Sonoma County.

Wild Flour Bread, right down the road from Osmosis, uses their wood-fired brick oven to produce some of the best bread in Northern California. Owner and master baker Jed Wallach also plays a mean samba. (See "Jed & Freestone Samba" at 3:00 on the music schedule.)

Freestone Vineyards produces Pinot Noir and Chardonnay using biodynamic practices in the hills above Freestone, available for tasting in their Guest Center in town. Tastings will be available at $5 (half price) during the Festival.
