San Benito Olive Festival

The first annual San Benito Olive Festival is an opportunity to taste award-winning olive oils paired with a variety of premier foods, wines and artisanal creations. Celebrity chefs will showcase the finest ingredients -- the majority of which are produced in San Benito County. Festival-goers will be able to taste creations, as well as mingle and meet the various growers and creators, while enjoying live music, local arts, crafts and the scenic venue.

The inaugural San Benito Olive Festival will take place at the Paicines Ranch, a 7,500-acre working ranch that was established in the mid-1800s. The historic setting has hosted many events over the years, including the marriage of Judy Garland and Sid Luft in 1952.

Tickets: $20/adult, $10/child, $30/VIP (includes wine tasting). Tickets available online at www.eventbrite.com.

For more information, please call (888) 503-3373, email info@sanbenitoolivefestival.com or visit www.sanbenitoolivefestival.com.

The San Benito Olive Festival is a not-for-profit organization. Its mission is to promote awareness and appreciation of the region's world-class agriculture and premier artisans, and to help support community causes with the festival's proceeds.
