Does anywhere in the area offer wine tasting classes? I'm not necessarily looking to get certified, just would like to learn a bit more about what I'm tasting.

Edit: Thanks for the tips of just trying local wines. To be clear, I already frequent several local wineries, try flights, etc. I'm looking to learn more deeply. Thanks!

I know everybody in y'all area is not bad, but every time I’ve been through even as a light skin mixed guy I get some pretty crazy looks. There are a lot of places in Grants Pass and nearby that genuinely look like beautiful spots to travel to, but I’m incredibly nervous because of the history of the area as well as the lean towards the right. If it were me and me alone I really wouldn’t care about coming through, but if I’m bringing my family with me, it’s a different situation. Does anybody have advice on navigating the way through Grants Pass while black, I’m really not trying to be an asshole. GP is just one of the few places in Oregon that feels like a no-go zone, for me at least.

I’ll be pulling for Mexico, so looking for a Mexican place. Good food, great drink specials, great vibes. Thanks in advance

I've been trying to find info on Chris Beck, but I haven't been able to find much so I thought I'd ask the community. I've volunteered for political candidates before, but I want to make sure he has my values.

Really don't want to start a hate thread of people fighting, but I wanted to know what the community knows about Chris Beck. I figure anyone is better than corrupt Cliff Bentz, but I wanted to see how the community feels about Chris.

I have an apple tree in my front yard that was planted many years before I bought this house. It was severely diseased when I moved in. We treated it for the problem and after 5 years it has officially disease free. Well this year the tree had bloomed beautifully and with a boatload of wonderful apples. Until yesterday… somebody took every single apple. They werent even ripe and wouldnt be ripe til September.

Who in their right mind steals an entire tree of unripened apples?

Reddit saves the day! Thanks everyone, I've got two great places lined up for the weekend!

I am planning a conference in Selma for next month and getting desperate looking for a caterer, food truck, or even a restaurant that can do take-out for 45 people, buffet style. I don't need staff or dishes, just the food. I have been calling, emailing, texting, and yelp messaging every food truck and caterer in the area for months and most never respond. If anyone knows someone who can help me out, please send me their contact info.

Thanks!

I know it’s a small population here, but has anyone found a great spot lately to watch World Cup games? I’m looking for a fun spot to watch the US v Turkey game on 6/25 at 7pm.

Suggestions much appreciated!

I was driving by yesterday, doing my daily ritual of making some obscene gesture at the private surveillance device on the corner of Lincoln Road and Upper River. When i noticed that all remains of the corporate spy is about 4” of black sawed pole! Idk who did it, maybe a blade runner, maybe someone official but to whomever that person was, THANK YOU. May it never return. And may all the rest come down soon.

We will be visiting Grants Pass very soon. Is there a company that offers tubing/kayaking that will pick you up at the bottom of the river?
