Sonoma County, known for its beauty and wine, has had over 150 years to build its reputation as a desired destination for travelers near and far. With over 350 wineries, it's no surprise 8.4 million people come to visit Sonoma County every year. But this is not what makes Sonoma County such a rich and wonderful place to visit or call home. If you are a visitor or a local, you know that it's not what Sonoma County has to offer, it's WHO. The people of Sonoma County, stretching from Santa Rosa to Sebastopol, Windsor to Healdsburg, Bodega Bay to Sea Ranch, and everywhere in between are truly what makes this area a special place to live. The amount of love and support during these tough times of fires and viruses says it all.
