Celebrate Harvest at Singletree Winery with Winemaker’s Longtable Dinner on November 3

Singletree WineryHave you ever tried any BC wines from the Fraser Valley?  Have you ever tried the cuisine from Forage Restaurant in downtown Vancouver?  If you have said “no” to one or both questions, I have a way you can experience both at the same time.  Singletree Winery in Abbotsford is having a Long Table Dinner featuring dishes prepared by Forage Restaurant, paired with their wines.  Here is the announcement.  The dinner is Nov. 3.  Get your tickets before they sell out fast.
