Avocados, Wiskerinos, Lambs and Jade in California This Week
How do you say “celebrate” in California? In Carpinteria on the Central Coast you say “guacamole” at California Avocado Festival. At Dixon’s Lambtown USA you say “baaaa” and count your sheep before you go to sleep. In Bishop it’s choo-choo time at the Choo Choo Swap Meet. And if you head for Big Sur, San Francisco, Oxnard, Millbrae, Oakland or just about any other city in the state, the word “festival” is popping up all over. Here are a few ways to celebrate your weekend ranging from beer & brats to tomatoes, avocados, eggplants and wine.
