Celebrate the Blues

Join us for the 2025 Celebrate the Blues on Saturday, April 19 for a meaningful evening to support the Blue Mountain Land Trust (BMLT) and celebrate the beauty of the Blue Mountain region.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Abeja Winery, which is located right next to BMLT’s first conservation easement – the Carl and Sonia Schmitt family farm on Titus Creek. This event will bring together local businesses and community members for a night of live music, a silent auction, and an inspiring "raise the paddle" moment to support our programs and mission-driven work.

Guests will learn about the ongoing conservation and stewardship efforts that help protect the land and waters of the region for people, agriculture and wildlife. It’s a perfect night of entertainment, philanthropy, and education, highlighting BMLT’s work in land conservation, habitat restoration, trail maintenance, and environmental education.

The evening will feature a family-style dinner from the kitchen of executive chef Mike Easton, designed and prepared by Chef Frank Magaña. The meal will be served at Abeja Winery, offering guests a unique dining experience complemented by wines produced at the vineyard by winemakers Dan Wampfler and Amy Alvarez-Wampfler.

Tickets to Celebrate the Blues are $150 and now available! This Blue Mountain Land Trust fundraiser kicks off at 6:00 p.m. featuring a silent auction, great food and wine, a raise-the-paddle for BMLT, and live music. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available. Enjoy an evening of community, conservation, and more.
