SUNDAY MAY 31

You are warmly invited to Howl & Harvest — an intimate farm-to-table dinner in the heart of Sonoma County benefiting CAFF’s programs and celebrating the International Year of the Woman Farmer.

The evening will include a tour of the farm, a seasonal dinner sourced almost entirely from women farmers and food artisans, local wine and beer, and live music. It’s a chance to spend time on the land, reconnect with people who share your values, and gather to toast 2026, which the United Nations has declared the International Year of the Woman Farmer.

CAFF has always been an organization where women lead: from our farmers and staff to our committees and conference floors, women have been at the center of our community from the very beginning. Your presence at our table is a celebration of that legacy, and a direct investment in its future. All donations go directly to supporting California’s family farmers.

THIS EVENT IS AT CAPACITY

Check out our Summer Soiree, another delicious event and chance to support CAFF, taking place July 25 at Fully Belly Farm.
