Roots and Vines: A Journey of Flavor, Wellness, and Learning

Sonoran University is excited to invite you to our upcoming fundraising event on Thursday, November 12, 2026 , from 6:00–8:00 p.m.

• A curated tasting of distinctive culinary spice blends from Loud Little Spices, each offering delicious flavor along with health benefits explained by Sonoran faculty

• An exclusive pouring of wines from LXV, one of Paso Robles’ most celebrated boutique wineries

• Sipping winning creations from our Sonoran Mocktail Competition, crafted with medicinal ingredients

Beyond a memorable evening, this event is a chance to invest in something bigger: Sonoran University’s growing role as a global leader in natural healthcare education.
