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. 

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.

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 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! 

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.

Chef Kyle, Katina and some of the SingleThread team are traveling to Japan at the end of May to celebrate twenty years of friendship with Chef Namae Shinobu of L'Effervesence in Tokyo, Japan. 

This is the team's first return to Japan in over two years and is a special opportunity to continue two decades of collaboration, as well as continue seafood sustainability initiatives locally with the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. 

Kyle, Katina and Name-san originally met during their time at Michel Bras in Hokkaido and they later worked together again at Heston Blumenthal's The Fat Duck in Bray, England. The Connaughtons and Namae-san felt an immediate kinship and have continued to collaborate and support each other as an extended family, cooking together and participating in educational events all over the world, at SingleThread in Healdsburg, and now at L'Effervescence in Tokyo!

The special collaboration dinner will take place at L'Effervescence on Monday, May 30th. Booking details can be found here. L'Effervesence is currently ranked #26 on the World's 50 Best Restaurant List and holds three Michelin stars. 

We are delighted to offer an intimate dining experience for guests staying at our Inn this summer. Experience the more rustic side of SingleThread’s cooking with a multi-course Donabe Hot Pot Dinner served comfortably in your room.
