*Get Outside Yakima!
Date: 3/25/2020 - 4/30/2020
Location: Yakima
In this time of social distancing, getting outside is one of the best ways to reduce stress, be active, and see and do new things.
Thanks to a collaboration between the Yakima Area Arboretum, Cowiche Canyon Conservancy, and the Yakima Greenway, we have put together a page called, "Get Outside Yakima!" for FREE outdoor activities that require little to no resources needed for families and individuals of all ages, as well as online sources of educational information for indoor learning.
The page will be updated when there are new activities and new sights to see that come with spring! Please pass this around and let us know if there are other free public green spaces or if you have activities to suggest for the page. This is your chance to get outside and truly appreciate why Yakima and the world needs its green spaces, now more than ever!

*Virtual Happy Hour with Domanico Cellars

Location: Prosser
24901 N Crosby Rd, Prosser, WA 99350
5pm. Last weekend’s Virtual Happy Hour turned into a jump back in time to what Friday Nights at the winery used to be. I was so much fun to see everyone. Hopefully this Saturday from 5 to 6 will be the same. If you would like to join us on Zoom it is quite easy. This weekend I will be drinking the 2016 Mesa Rojo and when and if I can get a word in, I may tell a story or two. Like I said it is like a traditional old Friday night just without Jon Black flipping me off. Feel free to bring whatever you would like to drink. Robert had the great idea that we should have a special on the wine I was drinking so that way if you wanted you could have a glass with me. He also recommended that the special should be COVID-19% off. Yes Robert and I do have a similar sense of humor. The price is updated on our website where you can order for pickup or delivery.
Here are the details on how to join us. First go to https://zoom.us and create an account... it free. Then here are the details
Topic: Domanico Cellars Virtual Happy Hour

Date: 4/5/2020
Location: Prosser

"Sunday Splurge" was created as a day to splurge on yourself. A day to have someone else prepare your food, a day to enjoy your meal with a glass of wine and a day to (safely) get out of the house, take a drive and pick up your pre-made "take & bake" food and wine pairings to-go-curbside!
Martinez & Martinez Winery has teamed up with Tuscany Catering to create three scrumptious "take & bake" meals paired perfectly with Martinez Wines. These meal kits can be purchased by calling the Tasting Room (1-509-786-2392 ) starting today through Friday April 3rd (by 3pm) and can be picked up (curb-side) on either April 4th or 5th between the hours of 11am and 5pm. Take the food home with warming instructions and -boom- you have a yummy catered meal with wine in the safety of your own home.
Visit https://myemail.constantcontact.com/Sunday-Splurge--with-a-side-of-Wine-4-5-2020.html?soid=1108931018971&aid=pJJxsiPJM38 to see the three meal options.

Winery construction is over, we are nearly moved in and just this past week we received all the necessary government approvals…now it’s time to enjoy the moment! Join us (virtually) for music and wine on Friday, April 10 at 7 p.m. PST/10 p.m. EST and put aside, for just an hour or so, everything else going on in the world. Whether you are a Yakima area local or remote across the country or world, we invite you to party with us. From the Fortuity Cellars Facebook Page, owners Lee and Emily Fergestrom will give you a sneak peek inside the new winery and then Britnee Kellogg (former American Idol contestant and Pacific Northwest singer-songwriter) will go live around 7:10 p.m. PST. When it became clear we couldn't host a party in-person, Britnee stepped right up to come up with creative alternatives. So, thanks Britnee! There are a few ticket packages – including both local (amazing charcuterie from The Abundant Table) and remote options. We know this is an unconventional way to celebrate an opening, but we hope you'll join in the fun!
