Iron Horse art gallery open in St. Helena
Iron Horse art gallery is now open next to A Dozen Vintners at Lodi Lane and Highway 29 north of St. Helena. It’s owned by Joyce Plowman, who has a similarly named gallery in Park City, Utah.

The gallery carries only original art — oil, acrylics and mixed media and some sculpture including the wind structures outside. 

The gallery opens to the winetasting salon next door, and both sides encourage patrons to mix wine with art.

For more information, call 963-3434 or e-mail napavalley@ironhorsegallery.com. It’s open from 10 a.m. to

5 p.m. daily.

   

Stave closing

Stave Wine Lounge in Napa is closing after trying to sell the business.

They’re selling their stock at 20 percent off. They’re also selling the furniture and fixtures.

Stave Wine Lounge is at 1149 First St. Call 259-5411.

   

Beans for all

Steve Sando of Rancho Gordo has written a new book about beans.

The book is called “Heirloom Beans: Great Recipes for Dips and Spreads, Soups and Stews, Salads and Salsas, and Much More from Rancho Gordo.”

An interesting fact: Because he sells out the beans each year, they’re virtually vintage beans. Fresh dried beans are better than old ones, which may never hydrate properly.
