The Napa Valley, Angelenos favorite place to visit, is featuring lots of fun events from fall through winter.
One of my favorites is:
The Napa Truffle Festival, December 10-12 featuring a unique gathering of leading truffle cultivation experts and scientists, along with internationally renowned Michelin Star chefs and special guests from the food and wine world.
The focus of the Festival is primarily black truffles, which will be discussed, examined, probed, prepared, demonstrated, and finally paired with wines and feasted upon. Events include organized dinners at select Napa restaurants, cultivation and culinary seminars, cooking classes, a truffle orchard tour excursion, Michelin Star Truffle Dinner and a Champagne Truffle Brunch, followed by an Epicurean Marketplace.

Black truffles farms in Spain are becoming very popular. Not to mention other countries in the world. Just a few short years ago, truffle farming was considered snake oil, but thanks to science, that has changed. Owning a black truffle farm is a great way to make a living.

Lucky you. I love black truffles. where's your farm?
Establishing a truffle orchard is a highly profitable way to make a living, but only if you have ultra high quality trees and the scientific expertise to manage them on an ongoing basis. Most people who just buy trees and then try to figure out how to manage them end up disappointed with no truffles. Of all the companies I've researched, one stood out as having real, ongoing science behind their truffle cultivation methodologies that they make available only to their client-partners.
