After visiting the pumpkin patch we headed north toward one of our favorite places in West County, The Bread Flour Bakery ( the aroma alone is worth the visit!)
Graton, a charming village in its own right with antique shops, boutiques, and restaurants ( try Willow-wood if you have a chance to stop and you're hungry for interesting blends of foods.) It also has a day labor center for workers who help produce some of our fine wines, construction work and supply some of the "hard" labor for construction and agriculture. The center provides a regulated and orderly process and translation services as needed for potential employees and employers.
A few miles outside Graton the road takes a sharp turn south and directly in front of you is one of Sonoma Countys active and surviving apples farms, Walker Apples. What a great sign!
Nearby we were amused by the below grade street sign on a road leading down into a canyon.
Stay tuned as we travel down Graton Road to Occidental - through beautiful valleys, redwood clad ridges with creeks, canyons and sun-dappled glades!
