A Spring Fling
As we welcomed the arrival of Spring, members and guests of The Wine & Food Society of Jacksonville gathered and celebrated amidst the beauty of nature at Epping Forest Yacht & Country Club. Nestled on the banks of the St. Johns River, Epping Forest is a renowned landmark of Jacksonville, known for its rich history, charm, and grace. Members were encouraged to dress for a dressy garden party. A special touch to the event came with the presentation of IWFS Membership Medallions to new members Bill and Stephanie Soer.
