Set against the stunning backdrop of Abeja Winery and located right next to BMLT’s first conservation easement at Carl & Sonia Schmitt Farm on Titus Creek, this event will bring together local businesses and community members for a night of live music, a silent auction, and an inspiring "raise the paddle" moment to support our programs and mission-driven work.

Guests will learn about the ongoing conservation and stewardship efforts that help protect the land and waters of the region for people, agriculture and wildlife. It’s a perfect night of entertainment, philanthropy, and education, highlighting BMLT’s work in land conservation, habitat restoration, trail maintenance, and environmental education.

The evening will feature a family-style dinner from the kitchen of executive chef Mike Easton, designed and prepared by Chef Frank Magaña. The meal will be served at Abeja Winery, offering guests a unique dining experience complemented by wines produced at the vineyard by winemakers Dan Wampfler and Amy Alvarez-Wampfler.

Tickets to Celebrate the Blues are $150 and now available here! The event kicks off at 6:00 p.m. featuring a silent auction, great food and wine, a raise-the-paddle for BMLT, and live music. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available. Enjoy an evening of community, conservation, and a silent auction featuring wine, unique experiences, and more.
