Join us this winter for an unparalleled cinematic dining experience through our seasonal residency series — ThroughLine, taking place in Park City, Utah and New York in 2025. ThroughLine will build upon the core ethos of SingleThread, expanding on our project that began with an immersive dining experience—Title Page—that took place in January 2024 at The Lodge at Blue Sky, in Park City, Utah. This evolving project is designed to deepen connections with our food systems and immerse guests in a culinary journey exploring the intersection of dining and documentary filmmaking.

This holiday season, we are excited to offer gifts made by our team and members of our community that capture the essence of Sonoma County. We are honored to be part of a thriving community of artisans who share their passions and talents with the world, each outcome reflecting a commitment to intentional craftsmanship and local heritage. We feel a deep responsibility to not only support these artists but also to share their work and their stories with our guests.

Everything we do is guided by respect for the land and nature’s delicate balance. Since SingleThread’s inception, we’ve been dedicated to providing an authentic taste of the region while minimizing waste and maximizing the use of every ingredient throughout the growing season. We are excited to partner with our friends at Kally, who share these same values, to create a verjus-based, non-alcoholic wine alternative that captures and celebrates the essence of wine country while utilizing ingredients harvested directly from our farm. 

This spring, with a desire to learn and exchange knowledge, our team traveled to Toyama, Japan to collaborate with local Chef Gejo on an immersive Kaiseki-inspired lunch. In the incredible setting of Shiraiwa, the home of IWA Sake and founder & maker Richard Geoffrey, we created an exclusive and intimate experience designed to shine a light on the region of Toyama and its diversity of ingredients and artisans.

Our Non-Alcoholic (NA) beverage program is a testament to our commitment to creating a holistic and exceptional dining experience for our guests, and to respect not only dietary choices and restrictions but also lifestyle ones. We always want to be inclusive of all. While we take tremendous pride in our award winning wine program, including our Unforgettable Pairings, we have recognized the growing demand for non-alcoholic options and have embraced the challenge of elevating these pairings to a new level of sophistication.

We are excited to announce our 4th Annual Sonoma Raffle – in partnership with winery Arnot-Roberts – to support Chill Foundation. By providing snowboarding and skateboarding experiences to underserved youth, Chill Foundation enables them to discover their potential, build self-confidence, and develop crucial life skills in a safe and supportive environment.

Our annual Sonoma Raffle supports the organization by giving away a stay at our Inn for two, dinner for two and a private farm tour by Head Farmer and Floral Designer Katina and Chef Kyle, and much more.

Behind every aspect of SingleThread’s offerings is a passionate, creative and knowledgeable team. Whether it’s our Farm Store, our CSA program or our Wine Shop, the origin is organic and thoughtful. SingleThread Wine shop was born in 2020 during the pandemic when we wanted to start sharing our wine program beyond our dining room. Our Wine Director and team were able to creatively pivot and elevate the SingleThread wine experience by bringing it into the homes of our guests.

During that time we also joined Sonoma Family Meal as we moved our operation mainly outdoors. We had the privilege of donating meals to families in need, alongside offering nourishing, farm inspired meals to safely enjoy at home. The SingleThread Wine Shop became an extension of these efforts.

Our 2023 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program is an opportunity for our farm to share our harvests in a new way, extending this community beyond the walls of our kitchens and dining rooms and offering farm fresh food to our friends and neighbors. By becoming a member of our CSA, you are directly contributing to the sustainability of our farm and our local food systems. In return, we commit to providing you with the highest quality produce we are able to grow.

Stop by our SingleThread Farm Store in the Dry Creek Valley. Positioned on SingleThread’s 24-acre working farm, the Farm Store is the result of Head Farmer and Owner Katina Connaughton’s longtime vision to create a shared space in support of vibrant ecology that not only serves an agricultural purpose, but that also provides a community and educational benefit.

In addition to a curated selection of daily harvested farm fresh produce, florals, and the SingleThread product line, we are delighted to carry an array of handcrafted products made by some of our favorite artisans.

SingleThread was delighted to host Richard Geoffroy of IWA Sake in late November for a special collaboration in celebration of IWA Sake’s anticipated US release.

Chef Kyle Connaughton and the SingleThread culinary team worked with Geoffroy on a seasonal 10-course menu designed to be paired with IWA’s incredible sakes.

We are thrilled to share a few images from the collaboration on our blog. Many thanks to our partners IWA Sake and Dom Perignon.

We are thrilled to formally unveil SingleThread’s Pantry Line!

These products originated in the restaurant kitchen and have slowly made their way onto our seasonal menus, and more recently, into the homes of our guests.

Inspired by SingleThread Farm at Dry Creek, the greater agricultural region of Sonoma County, and the rich culinary traditions of Japan, we hope these products offer something that is both familiar and different. Something new to add to your shelf of favorites in your own kitchen.

The pantry line is now available for purchase at the Farm Store.

We are pleased to share that we now carry a custom designed SingleThread Furoshiki at The Farm Store.

Furoshiki is a traditional way to wrap gifts and belongings in Japan. It can be used from generation to generation and makes for a lovely heirloom. Our furoshiki is 100% cotton and is hand-dyed by Nagakan in Sendai, Japan.

Versatile and beautiful, Furoshiki can be used to wrap a variety of objects, from wine bottles, to packages of different shapes and sizes. Purchase your Furoshiki at The Farm Store or online here.

We are pleased to announce Chris McFall has moved into a larger role overseeing the entire beverage program as Wine Director at SingleThread. Most recently the restaurant’s Head Sommelier, Chris first gained recognition in his hometown of Austin, Texas when he was named Best New Sommelier by Wine & Spirits Magazine in 2012. Chris later managed and developed noteworthy programs at two-Michelin starred Lazy Bear in San Francisco prior to joining the SingleThread wine team in the spring of 2020.

“I’m elated to continue the legacy of the Beverage Program at SingleThread, continuing to collaborate with our Local Growers and the International Winemakers that inspire us.”

Congratulations, Chris!

Chef Kyle Connaughton is pleased to announce a new recipe collaboration with Oakland, California-based Cuzen Matcha.

Eijiro Tsukada, founder of Cuzen Matcha, and Chef Kyle first met in 2016. By 2020, the relationship between Cuzen Matcha and SingleThread expanded with both entrepreneurs experimenting with Cuzen Matcha’s high-quality, freshly ground matcha, which has a distinctly smooth, balanced flavor and gives the drinker a mellow, focused energy that lasts. Their goal was to develop recipes that would highlight the distinctive umami flavors found uniquely in Cuzen Matcha’s offering. Eventually Chef Kyle began to offer Cuzen Matcha machines in the SingleThread Inn’s guest rooms, as well as integrate its matcha into a selection of lattes and smoothies available to guests throughout the property.

Kyle and Katina are proud to be active supporters of the Chill Foundation, an organization that works to inspire youth to overcome challenges through boardsports.

Founded in 1995 by Jake and Donna Carpenter, founders of Burton Snowboards, Chill has served more than 30,000 young people since the program began. Chill offers programming to youth at no cost, partnering with community organizations, schools and juvenile justice programs in 24 cities and 9 countries across the world.

As longtime boardsports fans themselves, Kyle and Katina share a deep commitment to furthering opportunities for youth through promoting boardsports.
