Aww … Bigfoot & Paws, with a name like that, how can you pick any other event to attend this Sunday? Hightail it to the Bigfoot Taproom in McKinleyville Sunday, Sept. 25 from 1 to 6 p.m. for this fundraising event for NorCal Pet Rescue, a local nonprofit, volunteer-based animal rescue. Enjoy an afternoon of food, beer, cider, wine, live music from Papa Haole and the Fleas, raffles and (squee!) adoptable dogs. Ages 21 and up (free entry).

Submitted In the northern part of the county, the Art and Wine Festival is happening Saturday, Sept. 24 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Fieldbrook Winery (free entry). It, too, is a fundraiser — this time for the Fieldbrook Educational Foundation, and you can almost smell what the ’Brook is cooking from here. Park across the street at Miller Field and head into the winery grounds for mouthwatering barbecued oysters, albacore, chicken on the grill, Greek salad, garlic bread, nachos and hot dogs for the kids. Oh yeah, and there’s live music, lovely scenery and plenty of art and craft booths.

Shutterstock A Sip of Summer: Hard Cider Festival actually takes place a few days into fall, but that’s neither here nor there. The point is, it’s a festive afternoon sipping sweet and tart adult beverages in the park while listening to live music, eating great grub, playing games and browsing the wares of local artists and crafters. And it’s a fundraiser to boot — benefiting Wild Souls Ranch! So grab your designated driver and head to Rohner Park on Saturday, Sept. 24 from 1 to 5 p.m. for all the fun: Live music by Jacki & the Jollies, Wild Abandon and The Critics, art and craft vendors, food trucks, lawn games, kids zone, unlimited cider tasting and a commemorative glass. Get tickets at northcoasttickets.com.

Heads up, Humboldt: While the county’s masking mandate has been lifted, Public Health is still strongly recommending masking indoors in public, social distancing and “avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.” COVID-19 is still with us, so be sure to check the protocols at event venues.
