(RECAP) See Pics from The Meet Market @ Benmarl Winery
A little bit of rain (ok, ok, a rather LOT of rain) didn't stop y'all from coming out for an indoor/outdoor evening of connecting with our community for the September 2021 installment of The Meet Market at Benmarl Winery. Local wines, wood-fired pizzas, chill beats and plenty of camaraderie made for an awesome night out - a huge thanks to everyone that joined!
