An authentic Italian experience in the heart of Marin.
Hosted with Maria Rossi & Michael Schinner • Saturday, August 1, 2026 • Nicasio, California
Join us for a summer afternoon and evening inspired by the Italian tradition of gathering around the table.
We'll begin with a walk through Roy's Redwoods Preserve under the towering trees. From there, we’ll head into nearby Nicasio for an authentic meal prepared by chef Maria Rossi at a beautiful property overlooking the town's historic square.
Having spent her entire life in Italy before recently moving to California, Maria brings generations of tradition to the table. Her cooking reflects the simple ingredients, unhurried meals, and warm hospitality that defines la dolce vita.
This is more than a dinner. It's an opportunity to slow down, share great food, meet remarkable people, and experience another extraordinary property that reflects the kind of places Land Club is bringing to life.
Hosted by Land Club
