SUMMARY:LODI GRAPE FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:The Lodi Winegrape Commission is a proud sponsor of the Lodi Grape Festival. \nOnce every year during harvest\, Lodi grape growing history is brought to life in a big and special way while the Lodi Grape Festival Grounds (413 E Lockeford Street\, Lodi) hosts a full-blown carnival\, including rides and treats for all ages. \nFor locals and the ever-expanding crew of folks who have fallen in love with Lodi\, the Lodi Grape Festival provides a rare treat: a glimpse into the unique\, fascinating history of the Lodi wine region. You really cannot understand Lodi until you attend a Grape Festival. Now more than ever\, it is important to teach the story of our beloved grapes to our children and to the world. \nThough deep-fried Oreos are amazing in their own right\, those of us who treasure Lodi vineyards and wines find greater satisfaction inside the huge Ole Mettler Grape Pavilion at the Festival. Here we step back in time to the days of the original Grape Festival called the Tokay Carnival (1907) and the first years of our Lodi Grape Festival (started in 1934). On display are beautiful handmade gowns of former Lodi Grape Royalty – literally\, Grape Festival Queens and their Courts of Grape Festival Princesses. Real\, non-digitized photographs of days past spark a warm feeling of nostalgia and resilience (see my favorite photo below and to the left). Local children submit lug boxes of grapes to be judged by experts along with huge traditional grape murals encompassing 8-10\,000 grapes each. \nIn the true spirit of a farming community\, admission prices are kept low and can be further reduced by buying them in advance or bringing donations of canned food. Learn more about tickets HERE. \nLodi Grape Festival\nSeptember 17-20\, 2026\n413 E Lockeford St\, Lodi CA\nThursday\, September 17 – 4pm to 11 pm\nFriday\, September 18 – Noon to Midnight\nSaturday\, September 19 – Noon to Midnight\nSunday\, September 20 – Noon to 11pm\nIf you need even more of a reason to visit the Lodi Grape Festival this year\, headlining entertainment includes multiple concerts\, a circus act\, and daily Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Shows and Pee Wee Stampedes. We’ll see you there!

SUMMARY:TREE OF HEAVEN REMOVAL DEMO
DESCRIPTION:TREE OF HEAVEN REMOVAL DEMO.\n\nDate:  Tuesday\, October 6\, 2026 \nTime:  8:00 – 9:30am \nVenue:  3080 E Winery Rd\, Acampo CA 95220; follow signs for parking then walk south to the Tree of Heaven colony on the east side of the vineyard \nCost:  FREE\, all are welcome \nCredits:  1.5 hrs DPR CE (other) applied for \nSpeakers:  Kyle Brown\, REC Committee Member/LangeTwins and Stephanie Bolton\, PhD\, Lodi Winegrape Commission \nDescription:  Most people are unaware of the damage caused by the Tree of Heaven\, both to our agroecosystems and structurally to roads\, pipes\, and buildings. This invasive\, toxic weed is rapidly spreading in farming\, industrial\, residential\, and transit areas across California and it takes a specific technique to remove it from the landscape (cutting it signals the tree to grow new suckers via the huge roots). Kyle will teach us how to safely remove Tree of Heaven plants and colonies using a tool called the EZ-Ject Lance\, which will be available to rent from the Lodi Winegrape Commission.  \nRSVP:  To the Lodi Winegrape Commission by phone 209.367.4727 or email info@lodiwine.com.
