From cookbook authors to food historians, memoirists and artisans, our culinary storytellers highlight our connection to land and community through the ancient ritual of nourishment. Join us for a multi-sensorial and multi-generational celebration of the universal language of food set against the intimate backdrop of Santa Barbara's historic Pico Adobe.

Guests will enjoy a glass of something fresh and sparkling upon arrival, a lively panel discussion on the outdoor terrace, and the opportunity to enjoy our delicious artisan marché filled with freshly baked goods, seasonal ferments, sublime desserts, and small-batch beverages. Books will be available for signing and purchasing. Please note that due to the intimate size of the adobe, this is a limited ticket event.
