Bring your blanket and/or your lawn chair (and probably some warm layers) and make yourself at home. Farm goods, food pop-up, and libations for purchase. Feel free to meander through the vineyard, coo with the chickens, snuggle the kitties, and get some love from our farm doggies Otis, Ozzy, and Oliver.
No pets please (we have plenty)!

Covenhoven
Covenhoven is internationally recognized indie artist Joel Van Horne, a multi-instrumental singer-songwriter whose rich harmonies, reedy baritone and commanding falsetto have found a home with critics and fans since 2013.
Through 4 full length albums (and a 5th on the way) and 2 EPs Covenhoven has forged a signature style; layered acoustic arrangements that roll with momentum into orchestral peaks, accompanied by lyrics that contrast hard-won wisdom with the inherent hope of the natural world—from Big Sur to his native Colorado.
Covenhoven’s latest album, IV (released in October 2021), is his most collaborative and rock forward to date—taking a producing partner in Ben Wysocki of the Fray, who also performs on the album. IV features over a dozen musicians including Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Gregory Alan Isakov, Luke Mossman of Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, and Bluebook’s Julie Davis.
Bandwagon magazine writes that in IV, Covenhoven reaches “into chamber pop territory, and revealing a wider vocal range…sheltered by a gorgeous, rich string and piano accompaniment, whisks us above the campfire folk…”
Covenhoven’s live performances capture the spirit of his recordings—whether its conjuring cascading loops in his solo shows or backed by a full band—Covenhoven’s sound fills the breadth of outdoor spaces, auditoriums and club stages.
Regularly touring the United States and Canada, Covenhoven has shared the stage with Grammy winners and nominees S.Carey (Bon Iver), Jose Gonzalez, Gregory Alan Isakov, and John Paul White (Civil Wars), and Reed Foehl. Covenhoven has also performed with genre bending artists Lord Huron, Leif Vollebekk, Elephant Revival, Joshua James, Blind Pilot, Esme Patterson, John Craigie, Daniel Rodriguez (Elephant Revival), Glen Phillips, Shook Twins, Rainbow Girls, Courtney Marie Andrews, Joan Shelley and host of others.
Covenhoven songs have been streamed over 3 million times and reached over 14 million people through television shows including: 13 Reasons Why, Nashville, Teen Wolf, Home Before Dark, Flaked, Kevin Probably Saves the World, and Private Eyes—Canada’s most watched show for 5 years.
Gillian Grogan
Gillian Grogan is a singer, songwriter and guitarist based in Sonoma County, California that sounds a bit like if Joni Mitchell and Freddie Mercury had a baby, musically speaking…
Untamed and untethered, Grogan drifts between genres with her tickled strings and floating vocals, her hammered riffs and belted requests. We All Need Someone To Shout For calls it "powerhouse emotive folk storytelling in the vein of Laura Marling". It is the alchemy of a pure yet earthy voice that can silence a room. The Woven Collective calls it "an unforgiving tuggin' at your roots, no matter where you come from, her lyrics wash over you like gentle reminders of another life you haven't had yet." She calls it full-bodied folk.
