Happy Winter Holidays!

It’s that time of year again and Merchants & Millers has olive oil ready to go. Harvest was great and there are 50 cases (less what’s already spoken for 😊) of the 2024 Olio Nuovo to make your holidays easier and tastier. The oil is tasting fabulous and ready for your culinary pleasure. The 2023 Sonoma Blend is sold out.

This year, shipping will be done as soon as possible with the last shipping day Dec 18.

Bay Area folks, I will be headed to Santa Cruz this week (Wednesday or Thursday) for oil deliveries.

As in previous years, 10% of sales will go to Reach for Home, www.reachforhome.org, an excellent organization that helps people get back on their feet after tough times. Last year, $556 was donated! They have been instrumental in helping misplaced fire and pandemic families for the past eight years. This year is no different and Merchants & Millers is glad to help.

Pricing - $25/bottle (local pick up only), $140 6/bottles, and $260/12 bottles Shipping: CA: 6 bottles - $25 7-12 bottles - $35 Outside of CA: 6 bottles - $30 7-12 bottles - $40 Be sure to include your address when responding!

Why take SUP 101? Clinic/tours now starting at Wohler Bridge.
The amount of deaths last year in paddle sports is unsettling. True, more people are paddling in extreme conditions. Yet it is not those folks getting hurt. Over 90% of paddling deaths are people just learning the sport. People with little to no experience. This is why Rubicon concentrates on teaching skills rather than renting equipment. We are the number one stand-up paddle-boarding training agency in Sonoma County. SUP 101 teaches the skills you need to be a safe and efficient paddler.

The CRQ went off in perfect weather yesterday with a record setting performance by man about town Carter Johnson. The four man team of birthday girl Jen Fuller, Devina Horstmann, Michael Melville, and me had a blast doing the 25 mile section. Thanks for a great time and to all who helped make it a success.
