Our Story
For over four decades, has brought together friends, families, wineries, chefs, musicians, artists, and community supporters for one unforgettable weekend on the Mendocino Coast.
Held at the breathtaking Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens, Winesong is one of California's most beloved coastal traditions — a celebration of exceptional wine, food, music, art, and community, all in support of rural healthcare on the Mendocino Coast.
What began in 1985 as a grassroots wine tasting that raised $18,692, Winesong has grown into one of the premier Northern California charity events with four decades of impact behind it. Over the years it has powered through early setbacks, surpassed $200,000 in gross income by 1993, adapted to a pandemic, and returned stronger than ever.
Most recently, funds raised helped purchase a new CT scanner for the coast, a vital investment in diagnostic care for the entire community.
Now celebrating its 41th Anniversary, Winesong invites guests to explore the very best of Mendocino County and Northern California — tastings from acclaimed wineries, breweries and distillers, incredible bites from local chefs, live music, and sweeping Pacific Ocean views, all while supporting a cause that matters deeply to this community.
Winesong is where celebration meets purpose. Every glass raised helps ensure that residents and visitors along the Mendocino Coast have access to the healthcare they deserve.
