Join the first Pasta Social Club culinary retreat in Oregon's idyllic Willamette Valley!
I'm thrilled to invite you to the first-ever Pasta Social Club culinary retreat, a weekend getaway full of great food and new friends!
Our inaugural retreat takes place from October 17 to 19, 2025, timed to none other than National Pasta Day, and set in Oregon's famed wine country, located just an hour outside of downtown Portland. We'll be staying at Inn The Ground, a luxurious bed & breakfast nestled in the picturesque hillside above a working regenerative farm.
​
Inn The Ground offers the perfect setting to relax, unwind, and enjoy the area's local food and wine. Expect a weekend of communal dinners, winery visits, farm tours, pasta-making and -eating (of course!), and exploring the neighboring historic town of McMinnville, all while connecting with fellow food lovers. I can't wait to welcome you!
Your ticket includes
Note: Air and transportation to/from the retreat is not included in the fee.
*We can accommodate most dietary restrictions and food allergies; unfortunately, gluten-free diets cannot be accommodated for the pasta-making class.

Important guidelines for double-occupancy rooms:
-
If you'd like a double-occupancy room and you're booking under one reservation, make sure to purchase 2 tickets. We'll ask you to provide information regarding both occupants after your tickets are secured.
-
If you'd like a double-occupancy room and you're booking separately, we'll ask you to provide your roommate selection after you secure your ticket.
-
Please note that you must have a roommate in mind when booking a double-occupancy ticket. We will not be matching guests who do not already know each other in a room.​
