"Wine and beer lovers who want to imbibe while supporting greener production methods can gather Oct. 26 for the California Certified Organic Farmers 2nd Annual Organic Beer and Wine Tasting.

Vintners and brewers accredited by the CCOF will come from all around the Bay Area and beyond to share organic wines and beers with authentic regional flavors. There will be live music to accompany the tasting while Ferry Building food vendors will offer organic snacks.

CCOF is an organic certifier organization founded in 1973 to produce wine and beer made with organic products and natural methods of soil usage.

Overall, the principal concerns are human health and the environment."
