Why We Love Downtown Atascadero In February

  • 2 min read

Hello! Welcome to the month of love downtown Atascadero, where our businesses have planned lots of delightful things for us to enjoy - as a couple, or solo - because sometimes what we really need is a bit of alone time to recharge! Treat yourself!


Wine tasting in downtown Atascadero.

A New Kind of Wine Tasting Experience


A unique experience I have enjoyed a few times is the Silent Book Club at Marin’s Vineyard Tasting Room, 5983 Entrada, on Sunday, February 8th. The tasting room is open from 1-6 PM, and the silent reading hour is from 3-4 PM. Bring your own book or choose from one in Marin’s library, grab a drink (mocktails also served), and get cozy. A gentle bell will chime at the start and end of each hour. It is a very unique and soul-filling experience to gather with others with the intention of quiet, togetherness, but a chance to recharge your batteries, put your phones away, tune out distractions, and enjoy a good book. 10/10, recommend. Marin’s Sparkling Viognier is my personal favorite to pair with my book.


Get A Green Thumb At A Plant Class

Peaceful Plants will be hosting a Wall-Mounted Propagation Station class at The Pottery, 5800 El Camino Real, from 6 -8 PM on Thursday, February 12. The class includes all the supplies to make your own propagation station with 4 glass tubes, your choice of 4 houseplant starts, and a beverage. Make one as a couple or come on your own, all ages welcome. Tickets can be purchased at https://my805tix.com/e/prop-station/tickets.


One of the most popular events in downtown Atascadero


Sip & Shop in downtown Atascadero.

Throughout the years, one of downtown’s most popular events is the Sweetheart Stroll - Sip & Shop. Hosted by the Chamber of Commerce, get your tickets in advance and visit downtown businesses that will be hosting local wineries for tastings, and an appearance is usually made by a singing quartet. The event takes place from 5-8 PM on February 13. Tickets can be purchased at atascaderochamber.org.


Say yes to self-care


Another beloved small business downtown, The Green Omen Apothecary, at 6280 Palma Ave, will be hosting an Herbal Self-Care Workshop Experience, Sunday, February 15, from 1-3 PM. The event will include a warm herbal foot soak and tea, creating your own body oil and bath soak, a guided facial steam and hand ritual to quiet the nervous system. With our busy schedules and the noisy world we live in, this sounds truly restorative.


Love MEets Halloween Scare

If plants, books, and self-care aren’t your thing, The Haunt Atascadero will be opening up for a February event, the theme is Love Can’t be Contained: Unchained. Be prepared to be SCARED. For tickets and info, visit www.thehauntinatascadero.com. When you are done being petrified, stop in The Poisoned Apple for a crisp glass pf cider, beer, or mead with moody tavern vibes.


Downtown comes to life with love!

Overall, we look forward to a month of Atown with heart (watch shop windows to come alive with the theme), the spring bulbs popping up, the trees starting to flower, and a strong local community spirit of love!
