Join The Humane Society of Sonoma County at St. Francis Winery & Vineyards for one of Sonoma County’s most cherished events, the Blessing of the Animals, a heartwarming celebration and fundraiser in support of the Humane Society of Sonoma County and other local nonprofit animal rescues.

On Sunday, October 5, join all furry friends, scaley sidekicks, aquatic acquaintances, and pals of the animal kingdom to the St. Francis Winery Sonoma Valley Tasting Room and Visitor Center to celebrate the 23rd Blessing of the Animals. Take part in this “adorable” afternoon to help raise much-needed funds for local Sonoma County non-profit animal rescues. The festivities will include the ever-popular “Winery Dog of the Year” contest, raffle prizes, wine, local fare, and a blessing for every animal that attends.
