HEALDSBURG LIBRARY TO CLOSE FOR EXTENSIVE REMODEL

New carpet, new furniture, new paint, new shelving— a thorough facelift for the Sonoma County Library branch in Healdsburg is planned to take place in the coming year. The downside: The library may be largely or completely closed for extended periods during the remodel, though the system is attempting to continue with services as best it can during the construction period. That may last as long as six months, according to Branch Manager Jon Haupt. “We will be able to offer limited service out of our Meeting Room, which has already been upgraded to some extent; and we are in talks with the city of Healdsburg about alternative locations for other public programming,” Haupt said. “We anticipate some combination of locations to accommodate the various activities we plan to offer.” Though the upgrades primarily affect the interior space at the regional branch, the exterior of the familiar building at the corner of Piper and Center streets will see improvements as well. These include adding windows to the south wall of the library facing Piper Street—windows that will allow more natural light into the 11,400-square-foot facility, opened in 1988. The $100,000 provided by the Friends of Healdsburg Library will support the windows and improvements to the children’s and teen areas. “Although we have the funding we need for the basic changes, the
NEW BAR Octavio Diaz stands before the new redwood bar at his Agave Restaurant in Healdsburg.
Agave Brings More Than Mole to the Table 15-YEAR-OLD MEXICAN RESTAURANT EVOLVES WITH THE TIMES By Christian Kallen
There’s a new bar in town. Not really new—it’s made from a 250-year-old redwood tree sustainably harvested in Humboldt County, and it has a certificate to prove it. The bar is wide and smooth, its leading edge the rough organic contours of the tree it came from. And it’s not in a new restaurant, but a long-standing Healdsburg favorite— the Agave Restaurant in Vineyard Plaza. “It’s a very eclectic piece of art for me. I like to support art,” said Octavio Diaz, the owner of Agave. Diners who came into the long-standing Agave Restaurant this week, after it was closed over the holidays, found a remodeled front room, with most
for several years. It was renamed as Gallina d’Oro this past year (128 Plaza St.). He, too, is ambitious and a skilled advocate of the cuisine of Oaxaca, the central Mexican state where both mezcal and mole originated. While Pedro opened Windsor’s El Gallo Negro (8465 Old Redwood Hwy) several years ago, brother Octavio had a more ambitious expansion in the works, an upscale restaurant in the East Bay called Agave Uptown. Premiering in the summer of 2016 as an entry in Oakland’s “buzzy dining scene” just a block from the Paramount Theater, Agave Uptown drew favorable reviews and positive response. But it was a lot of work, and Diaz recently withdrew from daily operations. (Agave Uptown is still open at 2135 Franklin St., Oakland.) “I was there for seven years,” said Diaz. “It’s a wonderful place, a beautiful, very community-oriented restaurant, just like
of the tables and chairs removed to the second room to give space for the new bar. “It smells good,” said Diaz of the bar. “All the lines that it has through there, it makes me think of what that tree had to go through in life. It makes us think, are we going to be good people, or not?” Kitchen Brothers Deep thoughts for a restaurateur, but Octavio Diaz, now 49, has long proved himself to be as much a visionary as a chef. From the beginning he focused Agave on mezcal, the smokey spirit made from the same cactus that gives the world tequila. That, and the spicy Mexican sauce known as mole, have become the signature flavors of much Mexican cuisine in Healdsburg, thanks in significant measure to Octavio Diaz and his younger brother, Pedro. Pedro Diaz, 48, took over the Farolito Restaurant in 2006 after working in the kitchen there
it is in Healdsburg.” Yet managing two restaurants and serving as executive chef at each took a toll. “But, you know, driving for seven years, we get tired,” Diaz said. “So I thought maybe I need to take a step back and spend more time in Healdsburg.” The Diaz brothers also run Casa del Mole at 434 Center St., a robust Mexican mercado with fruits, vegetables, a meat counter, a small-dish restaurant and a kitchen—where their mother’s signature Mole Diaz Bros. de Oaxaca is made for in-house and commercial distribution, and of course available in 16-ounce jars. Secret Recipe The fragrant sauce is made from 20 fresh ingredients, delicious on enchiladas or baked chicken (or, seasonally, turkey), and Diaz is quick to point out it’s vegan and gluten-free. But the recipe, he says, is still his mother’s secret. “She hasn’t shared it with us,” he said. “So I’m still trying to be the
➝ Local Library, 6
nicest kid …” He breaks into a wide grin. The mole his mother makes is mole negro, “the king of moles in Oaxaca” as Diaz pronounces it—which includes chocolate, chili peppers, onions, garlic and more. But it’s just one of several styles of mole that is used in Mexican cooking. “There are eight different regions in Oaxaca, and eight different moles,” Diaz said. So with the expansion of the dining area and the new, longer bar, Agave Healdsburg is expanding, too, its mole menu. Two new moles now appear on the menu: mole coloradito, built around cinnamon, allspice, cloves and cumin seeds, and the earthy mole pipián, which includes pumpkin seeds, sesame and peanuts. But different mole calls for different dishes, which Diaz will introduce in the coming months. “I think that people are ready for more moles,” he said. He’s considering a vegetable dish with white rice, the ➝ More Than Mole, 7
HEALDSBURG OFFERS NEW PUBLIC ART GRANTS FOR 2ND YEAR Photo courtesy of Jennifer Utsch

$2,500 GRANTS PREFERRED, LARGER APPLICATIONS POSSIBLE By Simone Wilson
Local artists have until 5pm on Feb. 2 to apply for a slice of the $50,000 in public art funding that the city of Healdsburg plans to distribute in 2024. “We are
looking for artists who can bring unique and thoughtprovoking pieces to our public spaces,” city officials said in a recent Facebook post. This is the second year the grants are available. Last June, the first $50,000 went to eight local proposals out of 27 submitted, according to Garrett Perdigao, the city’s recreation supervisor. The 2023 winners included a series of Indigenous literary events at The 222 venue; the revival of the Prune Box Derby, an old Healdsburg tradition; dance performances by Healdsburg’s local ballet folklórico group; Art After Dark, the summer downtown art crawl; a new LED display outside the Healdsburg Museum; and three different art pieces along the Foss Creek Pathway through town. Of those projects, only
the museum lights and an abstract stop-sign sculpture along the pathway have yet to be completed, Perdigao said, although the Prune Box Derby is not scheduled until April 28, 2024. While city officials encourage individual artists to keep this year’s proposals under $2,500, and larger groups or organizations under $5,000, they stress that “these are guidelines only”—and that proposals can go as high as the full $50,000 grant pool. Indeed, last year, a single proposal received $20,000, or 40% of the pool. For that, the Voigt Family Sculpture Foundation and sculptor Ned Kahn installed an art piece called Running Line on the backside of the old E&M building along Foss Creek Pathway, near the roundabout.

Pruning Prepares the Vines by Pierre Ratte
During winter months, throughout Healdsburg’s countryside, one is likely to find pruned vineyards. The clippings are laid on rows of green cover-crops recharging the soil, later turning mustard yellow or radish white. In dark, foggy and cold winter morning conditions, field hands clip canes on vines—about 100 million clips in Sonoma County. Those clips will bring forth spring’s bud break, summer’s veraison and fall’s harvest, to make wine. Vineyards don’t prune
themselves, and resolutions don’t last without work. And so, another year turns. It’s 2024; almost a quarter of the way through the 21st century. Here’s to wishing resolutions longevity, at least past January! Fun facts: Using rough calculations and assumptions, Sonoma County’s vineyard workers clip 100 million canes—assuming GDC plantings with wider rows and vine spacing, approximately 50,000 acres of vineyard in the county, 100 vines per acre and 20 canes per vine equals 100 million cane clippings.
A GDC trellis is a Geneva Double Curtain; it has two parallel wires separated by 1-1.5 feet in height with a single cane trellised to each wire in two directions. Other trellising systems are: SmartDyson, Scott Henry, U-Shaped, High Bilateral Cordon, Head Trained or Umbrella Kniffin, and VSP Vertical Shoot Position. Bud break, depending on weather and varietal, occurs in March. Veraison, the French/English word for the moment when grapes’ green berries begin to show color, occurs in July and August.
During the 1940s, German prisoners of war worked in Sonoma County’s vineyards and orchards. A camp with approximately 1,000 Germans was located just outside Windsor. Pay to the
prisoners for farm labor was about $1 per day; average farm labor costs were about $4 per day. The prisoners wore regular-looking clothes with a “P” and “W” stencil. Reportedly, Rommel’s
army men were more polite than the German U-boat POWs. Windsor was named by an English pony express rider, Hiram Lewis, after the pastoral beauty surrounding Windsor Castle.

Housing Market Report: A Rising Tide
Photo by Christian Kallen
TOP PROPERTY This house at 681 S. Fitch Mountain Rd. was the most expensive home sold within Healdsburg city limits in 2023.
By David Hargreaves
Over the next week, you will start seeing the data for the Healdsburg housing market for 2023 compared to 2022, which will
show that sales for 2023 were down 15% year over year to 171 residential properties, with median prices up 9% to $1.23 million. However, looking at the headline figures for Healdsburg is potentially misleading and doesn’t tell the whole story because rural Healdsburg is very different from the city of Healdsburg. Only when we take a

Most Expensive
So what was the most expensive home sold in
Healdsburg this year? It was 3315 Westside Rd., a four-bedroom, six-bathroom home on 16 acres, including a small hobby vineyard and just a sixminute drive to the Plaza, that sold for $8.5 million. It checked all the boxes for the typical secondhome buyer (the buyers came from, you guessed it, Woodside near Palo Alto). The only thing missing was a swimming pool, although it did have its own lake! The most expensive home within the city limits was 135 Sagebush Court, one of the Montage Harvest homes which sold for $6.6 million to someone from Minnesota. If we take out the Montage sales, then the most expensive home sold within the city limits was 681 S. Fitch Mountain Rd., a large, recognizable family home set on 1.3 acres. This sold for $4.1 million and was bought by a developer who is going to split the large lot, fix up the main house and then build a new, high-end custom home likely to sell for over $5 million. So who are the people who have been buying and selling this year? Because of the high interest rates in 2023 there was very little incentive for people to sell their home unless
they were able to purchase a replacement home with cash. In fact, nearly half (48%) of all purchasers were cash buyers in 2023. Despite this environment, there were still plenty of buyers in the market, just not enough inventory to go around, leading to 24% of all homes attracting multiple offers from buyers. This cooled in the last quarter, but with interest rates expected to start falling into the second quarter of this year, it feels like the market will continue to be a strong market for sellers who price homes appropriately, as the number of buyers exceeds the number of homes for sale.
Deeper Dive Into Data
If we delve into the data a little further we continue to see a rise in Healdsburg as a market for both investors and second-home owners. Looking at the tax records we see that 64% of all homes sold were purchased by people for whom it was not a primary residence. This doesn’t necessarily mean it is a second home, it could equally be an investment property creating more rental
inventory for the local community. This percentage has increased steadily since I first looked at the data in 2019, when 37% of homes were non-owner occupied. It’s easy to assume that a lot of these buyers are from out of the area, elsewhere in California or the Bay Area, but there are many local investors as well. In fact, local investors represent 39% of these purchases, with 25% being from Healdsburg and the remainder from elsewhere in Sonoma County. With 31% of the non-owneroccupied properties being purchased by Bay Area residents, local residents represent the largest share of investor buyers. What does all this mean for 2024? The investment that has come into Healdsburg from all over the country, combined with the town’s continued development as a destination for food, wine and outdoor lifestyle lovers, as well as Healdsburg’s own very special community, means that it will continue to be pretty well protected from the natural cycles of real estate. As the saying goes, a rising tide floats all boats.

artin passed away peacefully at his Fitch Mountain home on December 6, 2023 from cancer he’d dealt with off and on for nearly 20 years. He was born in San Francisco and grew up in a close-knit neighborhood in Oakland. The son of German American parents, he spoke German before English. The family kept many of their German traditions, including the making of bratwurst sausages, which Marty carried on. After graduating from Oakland H.S. in 1957, Marty enrolled at Cal Poly with the aim of becoming an engineer, but he eventually graduated from UC Davis with a Food Science degree. It was at Davis that he met and married his first wife, Aileen Hohmann. Their son Karl was born in 1963. After an amicable divorce, Marty accepted a job with Zeiss Optical Instruments of Germany. After a while he moved back to northern California, where he worked in the food industry for decades, focusing on dried fruit and nuts. Early on he did some troubleshooting at the prune dehydrator in Healdsburg. He also worked at Mariani Packing and Sun-Diamond Growers, eventually going into the consulting business. One early employer was Sun-Maid Raisins. Marty developed their Sun-Maid Raisin Bread, but the key development was when his co-worker Grace introduced him to her daughter Ellen in late June of 1972. To say they hit it off is an understatement--they were married in Grace’s living room two months later and celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary in August 2023. Their son Robert was born in 1976. Marty’s happy memories of his family spending summer vacations in Fetter’s Springs near Calistoga inspired the 1986 acquisition of one and a half acres on Fitch Mountain outside of Healdsburg. He and Ellen enjoyed inviting friends there for weekends that usually involved barbecuing and hot-tubbing. After retirement they moved up to Fitch Mountain permanently, building their dream house in 2005. Marty’s favorite activities were cooking, hosting (think bratwurst parties and Indonesian rijsttafel), and telling jokes. He was renowned for pulling his little black Daytimer out of his shirt pocket to cue them up, organized by category, audience, and level of appropriateness. He was handy with tools, and he enjoyed taking and organizing photos of vacation travels and patio parties. Very detail-oriented, he applied himself assiduously to managing financial matters. He was a Trustee and then Treasurer of the Fitch Mountain Association for many years and was a member of the Healdsburg Kiwanis. A memorial service will be held at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Healdsburg on January 27, 2024 at 2:00 p.m.
more detailed look at the numbers do we really get a sense of some of the trends impacting the market. If we look at the numbers for Healdsburg city— all the homes that were sold within the 4.4 square miles of the city limits— we see a very different picture compared to homes that are in “greater Healdsburg,” which covers the 188 square miles of rural Healdsburg in the 95448 zip code. Not only do the high prices of some of the more rural vineyard properties a distort the numbers, but the sale of Montage homes in the city limits at an average price of $5.37 million and an average dollar-persq-ft price of $2,177, combined with Mill District sales likely to start affecting the numbers for 2024 (if the project doesn’t continue to have delays), will further distort the numbers over time for people with traditional singlefamily homes. If we remove rural properties and Montage, the average $-per-sq-foot sale price is $761 compared to $918 for all properties, which is a 20% difference.

Healdsburg Golf Club at Tayman Park just added an exciting new attraction to its already awesome driving range. It installed a Toptracer in all 18 hitting bays at their driving range! The machine can track golf shots and tell you the distance you hit the range balls; your carry (how far the ball is hit in the air), your spin rate and so much more. You can also play games such as Go Fish, where sharks are placed on a virtual course! If, and when, you hit your ball into the shark zones, you can get many stars/points at a time. Another one of the Toptracer’s many features is the “longest drive” competition where you can compete against your friends, and see who’s got the most muscle. A great feature I love are the many virtual courses from all over the world you can play on. I used the machine with Oscar Stewart and Cameron Taovani when it was raining, instead of going out on the course. The weather wasn’t an issue
because we were under a roof while using Toptracer to play Pebble Beach virtually. We had a great time and a great match all around. My experience with the machine was phenomenal. I can now see exactly how far all of my clubs make the ball go, and this will help me in future tournaments with the PGA junior league. I think this machine will help me later in life at golf, and I’m very excited to use it more. All people need to do to access Toptracer is get a bucket of balls from the pro shop and you can easily fire it up!

The Healdsburg High girls basketball team entered 2024 with a 14-2 record, but were immediately faced with a challenge as they met a much-improved Elsie Allen team (13-1) in Santa Rosa on Friday, Jan. 5. It didn’t take long, however, for the current North Coast Redwood league champions to assert their dominance, as the Greyhounds raced off to a 15-6 first-quarter lead and never looked back en route to a convincing 54-25 win. Defense carried the day, as the Lobos managed only 8 points in their highest-scoring quarter, the fourth, while the Greyhounds scored into double-digits in every frame. Leading the pack was cocaptain Allie Espinoza with 15 points, 11 rebounds and 2 steals in 24 minutes of play. Hailey Webb sank three of her six three-point attempts and scored a total of 11, and Ruby Leffew’s shots added 9 points to the final. All the girls on the roster got a chance to play, but ironically coach Jim Lago gave a special shoutout to junior Macie Parmeter who had zero points
in 10 minutes on the court. “A stand-out player for Healdsburg was Macie Parmeter, who was on fire!” he said. “She impressed us all with her high energy and great decision making on the court. She boasted a solid performance in her first league game of the season.” Tuesday night this week, the Greyhound girls defeated the Santa Rosa Panthers 71-40 in Healdsburg. Next up is St. Vincent on Thursday, Jan. 11. Only league games remain on the schedule, most on

Will Healdsburg have good television reception? A definite affirmative answer was given to Sonoma County distributors by television engineers at a meeting held in Santa Rosa Wednesday evening.

Even the puck in the broadcasted hockey game was at all times visible, Quinto Barbieri, a member of the group, said.

Arrests for intoxication in Healdsburg, once one of the largest items in the business of the police department, have now almost been passed in total by arrests under the prohibition law. According to a report filed with the city clerk, there were only 13 arrests for intoxication here during 1923, while there were 11 arrests for violation of the Wright act or the local anti-sales ordinance during the year. The 13 intoxication arrests resulted in the collection by the city of $105 in fines and forfeitures. Nine of the 11 persons arrested under the dry acts were convicted and they paid a total of $1550 into the city treasury, an average of better than $172 each. The total fines collected by
the recorder’s court during the year amounted to $1890, the following other offenses being included: Reckless driving, 18 cases, paid $190; disturbing the peace, four cases, paid $20; breaking seal on water meter, one case, paid $25.

What do you think of coming to school in the dark, we asked? “I hate it” was one young man’s quick reply, as he stamped his feet to keep warm. Several reports were received that parents had refused to allow their children to meet the school bus in the dark, bringing youngsters to school by car instead. That doesn’t seem
yesterday because of what Superintendent Robert Malone described as “extreme hazards of walking and waiting for buses” before daylight. A talk with students at Fitch Mountain School early Tuesday morning showed that pupils weren’t too enthusiastic about the early arrival at school, either.
Because the building is owned by the city of Healdsburg, the city will also be on the hook for some of the capital improvements, such as now-required ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) enhancements and other exterior modifications. The primary source of funding for the upgrades will be funds from Measure Y, passed in 2016 to
levy a 0.125-cent sales tax for library modernization and improvements. Details of many of these plans remain unclear, as the final plans of the construction project are still being developed in anticipation of the awarding of construction contracts in May or June. A November 2024 date is being targeted for completion of the Healdsburg Branch Library improvements.

Healdsburg’s public art grants date to 2018 when, upon public demand, city leaders decided they needed an official artsand-culture plan.

Oaxacan restaurant serves mole and more

➝1 return of a fresh fish dish called branzino and maybe something with scallops. “There’s a lot of things that go with mole,” he said. “It’s more of a sauce that goes with everything, but every time I use that for any meat or protein, it makes me think of my childhood, where I was born in Oaxaca.” The location of Agave in the Vineyard Plaza makes it a bit off the beaten path for the gastronomes who frequent the Plaza area. But there’s something happening at this end of the shopping center: Two doors away is Starbucks, next door is Mambo’s Pizza and next to that is Bollywood Kitchen, both recent entries in Healdsburg’s food scene. Diaz calls it a “foodie corner” at Vineyard Plaza. “When we are all cooking, it’s like a machine of three different flavors,” he said. Plans are afoot to have live music in the common area on weekends, “just to bring more people and enjoy a beer outside on the patio. Maybe a bottle of wine. “If they can order Bollywood, Mexican food and pizza, and everybody’s sitting at the same table, how cool would that be?” After his seven years of divided attention, Diaz declares himself “100% back.” With the family food scene of the “foodie

is,” he said. “Because the service industry has been suffering for the last three or four years since Covid. The service is not there in some places I go eat. And I don’t want that in my place. “I want it to be the place that we used to be
before COVID. It’s energetic. The people are happy. It’s noisy, it’s loud. The food smells great. It looks good! I mean, it all comes together.” Agave Restaurant is located at 1063 Vine St.; hours 10am to 9pm daily.
The mole his mother makes is mole negro, ‘the king of moles in Oaxaca’ as Diaz pronounces it—which includes chocolate, chili peppers, onions, garlic and more.
