2017 Livermore Wine Country Festival

​May 6-7, 2017 | Downtown Livermore, CA

The Friends of the Vineyards (FOV) was one of over 300 vendors that set up and managed a booth on Saturday, May 6th and Sunday, May 7th at the Livermore Wine Country Downtown Street Festival.  This festival is one of the largest in the East Bay with over 150,000 people attending and celebrates wine, craft beers, arts, crafts, dining, and entertainment in the downtown charm of Livermore.

Our FOV Directors managed the booth and were able to explain to our visitors who we are and what we do.  It was fun talking to our guests about our efforts to preserve open space, agriculture land, our wine industry, and our trails.  We were also able to explain urban growth boundaries and the South Livermore Area Plan and how they work together to help us protect our valuable land, precious water, trails, and endangered species. We have only one planet and we must all work together to preserve it.
