Stroll picturesque vineyards and an old-growth riparian forest along the Mokelumne River with a local birding expert. Participants will scan the vegetation and skies looking for species to add to the Winery’s monthly list. At the end of your walk, relax and talk birds with other enthusiasts on the Heritage Oak Winery patio while you enjoy Tom and Carmela Hoffman’s handcrafted wines and a delicious lunch from the popular Bon Appetit gourmet sandwich shop.
