Fun Fact: The Rocks District of Milton‑Freewater is the only AVA in the USA defined by a single soil series and landform—a testament to its geological and enological uniqueness. 🌱🍷

This weekend, that same terroir fuels more than great wine. The Rocks District Winegrowers and Milton‑Freewater School District team up for The Basalt Bash & Barrel Auction—every ticket and paddle raise brings on‑campus mental‑behavioral health services to students, cutting absences and barriers to care. Grab your ticket and paddle up for stronger minds and a stronger community in the Valley. 🎟️💙
