Bio-Fewel: The next generation of fuel.


I am so proud of my hubby! He was on the front page of our local paper, Yakima Herald, this week. As some of you know from our website, my husband Tad makes bio-diesel for use on our ranches and vineyards. Here is the link to the article:
www.yakima-herald.com/stories/2009/06/14/home-brewed-biodiesel. Tad has been making this fuel out of used vegetable oil for a couple of years. Although, it is a lot a hard work, it is very gratifying. He does get dirty doing it-not fun on laundry day. I know for a fact! But the payoff is so worth it. If you have any questions about bio diesel, feel free to leave a comment for us or visit the "Bio-Fewel Crew" at the tasting room.

Cheers, Sarah

Ramseyer's Vineyards Open House

We attended our friends new winery's open house a couple of weeks ago. The Ramseyer family bought property here in the Zillah area a few years ago. They planted a small vineyard, with plans to expand in the future. Cabernet Sauvignon is there mainstay and they have done a great job with it. And if you are lucky enough to get your hands on some of their wine, enjoy it, as the vintages are very small. What a great day in Zillah it was: sun, food, wine, and friends. What more could you ask for? Check out their website: www.ramseyervineyards.com.
