🍷 A NEW CHAPTER FOR EDNA VALLEY! 🌿

One of the Central Coast’s most recognizable wine properties has a fresh look, a new vision, and even more reasons to stop by!

Formerly home to Edna Valley Vineyard, the historic property on Biddle Ranch Road has been transformed into EDNA, a locally owned food, wine, and gathering destination.

A little history first! 🍇

• The winery’s roots date back to 1973, when Jack Niven began planting Paragon Vineyard.
• The Edna Valley Vineyard label was established in 1981 and became one of the region’s best-known wineries.
• The Niven family sold the winery to E. & J. Gallo in 2011.
• After Gallo eventually put the property up for sale, a group of local owners purchased it in 2025, bringing this historic piece of Edna Valley back into local hands!

✨ So what’s new?

🍷 THE TASTING ROOM
Completely reimagined, the tasting room now showcases wines from local producers Dunites, Greengate, and Vestre. It’s a wonderful opportunity to discover more of what the SLO Coast wine region has to offer.

🛍️ THE MARKET
Part bottle shop, part gourmet market, this is a great place to grab a sandwich, salad, cheese board, or something delicious to take along with a bottle of wine. You’ll also find locally sourced provisions and plenty of options for a casual afternoon on the patio.

🍽️ THE RESTAURANT
The newest addition officially opened November 5! Led by Culinary Director and Partner Chef Jeremy Fox and Executive Chef Matthew Schaler, The Restaurant at Edna focuses on seasonal ingredients, local farms, and Central Coast agriculture. Expect thoughtful, ingredient-driven cuisine in a beautiful setting overlooking the valley.

And there’s more to come, including the Valley of Nine craft distillery!

📍 PLAN YOUR VISIT
2585 Biddle Ranch Road, San Luis Obispo

For menus, tasting reservations, restaurant reservations, and more information, visit ednaslo.com.

Follow along: @seeyouatedna & @therestaurantatedna

The former Edna Valley Vineyard property has certainly entered a new chapter, and we’re excited to see this local group bringing new life to such an important part of SLO County’s wine history.

Cheers! 🥂

Meet Kai Shave Ice, a locally owned spot bringing tropical flavors and island vibes to the Central Coast! 🌊

🥭 Hawaiian-style shaved ice with a variety of flavorful syrups
🥤 Tropical dirty sodas with creative, island-inspired combinations
🍓 Açaí bowls for a refreshing treat
🍚 Poke bowls for something savory and satisfying!

📍 Right in the heart of Morro Bay!
Find Kai at 255 Morro Bay Blvd, just a short stroll from the Embarcadero and Main Street! That makes it a great stop while exploring downtown, browsing local shops, or spending the day enjoying Morro Bay. 🌊🛍️

🦎🐢🦜 Have you checked out BK’s Reptiles & Zoo in Grover Beach yet? 🐍🐸

If you’re looking for something a little different to do on the Central Coast, this locally owned, family-run spot is home to reptiles, amphibians, insects and lorikeets, with plenty of opportunities to get up close and interactive with the animals!

BK’s Reptiles & Zoo opened its doors in Grover Beach in May 2026, but owner Andrew Barton’s love of reptiles goes back much further. 🦎 Andrew fell in love with reptiles when he was about 5 years old, growing up in Louisiana and catching turtles, frogs, snakes and fish. 🐢 After years of planning and dreaming about opening his own zoo, BK’s Reptiles & Zoo finally became a reality right here on the Central Coast! Today, the zoo is home to 50+ reptiles, amphibians, insects and lorikeets. 🐊🐍🦜

🎟️ WHAT CAN YOU DO THERE?
This isn’t just a walk-through zoo. There are several hands-on experiences available:

🐢 Turtle Feeding
Feed live worms to the turtles in the pond! This experience is $5 and is suitable for all ages.

🐢 Tortoise Feeding
Get up close with the giant Sulcata tortoises and hand-feed them for $5. Just remember to keep those fingers clear of their mouths! 😆

🦜 Lorikeet Paradise
Step inside the aviary and hand-feed the lorikeets nectar. With more than a dozen birds in the aviary, there’s a good chance one might decide that YOU are the perfect landing spot. 😂🦜

🐍 Reptile Zoo
Explore the walk-through reptile zoo and see a variety of reptiles, amphibians and other animals up close. And depending on the day, you may even get the chance to see some of the animals outside their enclosures for a closer look!

🛍️ THERE’S ALSO A REPTILE STORE
The front of BK’s is a reptile specialty store where you can find animals, habitat supplies, feeder insects and other reptile-related products.

So whether you already have a scaly friend at home or you just want to come see some fascinating animals, there’s something here for you. 🦎

📍🕙🎟️ PLAN YOUR VISIT
Visit @bksreptilezoo for location, hours, and current prices for zoo admission and hands-on experiences!
