Faith, Hope & Charity Vineyard to host FAN event this month

I know, I know! I haven't posted anything in months - I gotta tell you, this summer thing with no school has been quite an adjustment. Woohoo for this Tuesday!!!

We'll be announding the location of our move very soon - stay tuned.. In the meantime, here's a press release from the folks at Faith Hope & Charity Vineyard in Terrbonne - should be a great event, and if you haven't been up to their location, it is worth the trip.

Sunday, October 4th at 3:00 pm
Faith, Hope, and Charity Vineyard
70455 NW Lower Bridge Way
Terrebonne, Oregon


Redmond, OR - September - Every day in Deschutes county, over 650 children are homeless, 1 in 7 go to bed hungry, and more than 6500 children don’t have access to adequate healthcare. Too many parents are faced with deciding: Heat? Or eat?

To help ensure all children in Deschutes County have access to basic-need services, the Heat? Or Eat? Benefit will be held on Sunday, October 4th at 3:00 pm at the Faith, Hope, and Charity Vineyard in Terrebonne.


This fun, family event will feature several booths highlighting Terrebonne’s growing Agritourism industry. Educational displays will showcase the Crescent Moon Alpaca Ranch with alpacas to pet and learn about, Deep Canyon Preserve with information on Pheasant and Chucker hunts, Rainshadow Organics vegetable farm, Maragas Winery and local vineyards.

There will also be a silent auction, horse-drawn wagon rides, wine tasting, art, and music provided by Erin Cole Baker and Casey Elliott. Beverages & hors d'oeuvres will be provided. Entry to the event is $10 and children under 12 are free.

All of the funds raised from this benefit will be used to support Family Access Network. FAN is a local non-profit organization that is committed to building a healthy community by alleviating the suffering of children in need. Through FAN advocates in each public school, children and families are connected to essential services including food, shelter, healthcare, clothing, job opportunities, child support, and more
