13th Annual Downtown Larkspur Wine Stroll
Our biggest and best
Wine Stroll ever!
The 13th Annual Downtown Larkspur Wine Stroll was a huge success and attracted the most attendees to date! We had more wineries, sponsors and vendors participating than in years past and were able to draw a
significant amount of new attendees, including our first-ever KidZone, sponsored by Chronos Academy and Simple Orthodontics. The School of Rock and the Meaty Ogres entertained over 1,200 attendees as they visited 29 wineries and our amazing food vendors - including Squared Pizza who served up slices from over 100 pies!
We were also back at the Lark Creek Shops, who featured the phenomenal band Pure Ecstasy, as well as a patio filled with additional wine, beer and food vendors. This year's Wine Stroll truly featured ALL of amazing downtown Larkspur!

Marin Sanitary Service : Business of the Month
Marin Sanitary Service - a Larkspur Chamber Bronze Prosperity Partner
The Larkspur Chamber is delighted to announce our October Member of the Month: Marin Sanitary Service!
Marin Sanitary's dedication to our community is celebrating 75 years of service in 2025!
As a new immigrant from Italy, Joe Garbarino’s father and uncle formed the first Scavengers Protective Association in 1920. Hauling garbage in giant burlap bags on his back over the steep hills of San Francisco, John Garbarino quickly learned that people threw away more than they should, and most of it could be reused. He soon began scouring wine bottles, eyeglasses and shoes and reselling them.
MSS began in 1948 when together the families Garbarino, Segale, Zappetini, Marconi and Zanotti left San Francisco and ventured into the growing communities of Marin County to start a new garbage service.
Joseph Garbarino, Sr., bravely served our country in WWII. Mr. Garbarino fought in Guadalcanal and the Philippines with the famous 25th Infantry Division. He was awarded the Purple Heart and attained the rank of Sergeant in the Army.
The company established the first countywide curbside recycling program in the country in 1979. Mr. Garbarino was inducted into the National Waste & Recycling Association’s hall of fame in 2014.
“His mantra was always, ‘An item should never be made that cannot be reused or recycled,’” said his daughter, the president of Marin Sanitary Service.
Today, Mr. Garbarino's legacy of resource conservation and community service lives on at Marin Sanitary!
