The Russian River Valley Winegrowers

will host its third annual Crab & Fennel Fest on Saturday,
March 4 at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds. Held on the same weekend
as the 28th Annual Russian River Wine Roads Barrel Tasting Weekend
(March 3, 4 and 5), the Crab & Fennel Fest gives guests a
chance to roll up their sleeves, crack fresh Dungeness crab, sip
delicious Russian River Valley wines and experience fennel-focused
culinary creations made by local chefs.
This year’s festival also includes action packed hermit crab
races where guests can cheer for their favorite crawler. The event
is in the Sonoma County Fairgrounds Hall of Flowers.
Tickets are $45 per person. For more information, visit
www.rrvw.org or call 521-2535. Attendees must be 21 years of age
and tickets must be purchased in advance; reserve tables are
available.
The RRVW’s mission is to nourish and protect the agricultural
diversity of the appellation and its authentic farming
heritage.
