Thanks for joining in as we get curious, interview folks, poke around in history archives, and just travel the backroads in California’s legendary Napa Valley, exploring the astonishingly
rich and lively heritage at our roots. Of course the story of winegrowing is key here —after nearly two centuries of harvests, viticultural experimentation, and world-wide acclaim. But hidden layers of stories and meaning come alive when we stretch to look just a little beyond. Our roots, our histories, run deep but are far from dead and gone. Though we may only pay them attention and "look back" on special occasions or anniversaries, our roots are always on the job, alive and growing, holding us together. They nourish us. They frame our lives. And that's not just in some long-forgotten past, but right here and now. And into whatever future we are imagining and shaping. Join our "tour" of the Napa Valley through the lens of history as we uncover and delight in the flow of connections that tie all who love this beautiful community to its extraordinary sense of place! This page is curated by Shannon Kuleto--essentially her Napa Valley oriented "Hot For History" blog postings--with special help from the Napa County Historical Society and St Helena Historical Society. We welcome your ideas, photos, questions and guest posts!
