St Helena AVA - Napa - Farmstead

Farmstead Restaurant at Long Meadow Ranch

“Farm to table” dining has been embraced by Napa County for many years now, but Farmstead at Long Meadow Ranch has created a food and wine experience that is more than an experience-it will be a legacy.

Ted and Laddie Hall met in the late 60’s and began a life together that landed them in California. Naturally this led to a passion for food and wine, and in 1989 they purchased the overgrown land of Farmstead and began creating what now includes 4 wine estates and more than 2000 acres of farming operations in Napa, Marin, Mendocino and Humboldt. 

Long Meadow Ranch is a pioneer of organic viticultural practices, and the food in their amazing restaurant benefits from sustainability and organic practices as well. You’ll know it as soon as you taste it. 

Featuring meats, eggs, vegetables, olive oil, and even honey from their various estates, Farmstead has one of those delightful menus that make it impossible to go wrong. So follow your heart. Order what looks good. But whatever you do, do not miss out on the mini ham sandwiches with pepper jelly. Or the grass fed meatballs with feta. Who am I kidding; just don’t miss out-make reservations to experience this food as soon as possible! – Lea Gourley
