Friends Of Rancocas Nature Center Fundraiser In Moorestown Oct. 2

MOORESTOWN, NJ — The Friends of the Rancocas Nature Center will hold its first fundraiser in 20 months in Moorestown this fall, the group announced Monday morning.

The 2nd Sips & Sounds at the Farm beer & wine tasting will take place in the spacious open-air setting of the big red barn at the Burlington County Agricultural Center on Oct. 2.

After the Burlington County Farmers’ Market packs up for the day, volunteers with the Friends of the Rancocas Nature Center will set up for the event, which runs from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the Burlington County Agricultural Center Barn, 500 Centerton Road in Moorestown.

There will be live music and food to accompany the wine and beer selections. Spellbound Brewery’s Brewmaster John Companick and 27 Winery & Vineyard’s Winemaker Dave Corey (recruited from Napa Valley for his expertise to create the brand-new winery at the 27-mile-marker in Columbus) will share their beer and wine tasting and food pairing tips. Fan favorite Michael’s Event Catering will again serve the food.

Lost in Brunswick will perform, and there will be a 50/50 Raffle and door prizes.
