Sea Stephanie Fish
In the world of California sea urchin fishing, the presence of women is as rare and precious as the ocean's hidden treasures. While the industry has traditionally been dominated by men, a select few remarkable women have carved their paths as pioneers in this male-dominated realm. These trailblazers, like Stephanie Mutz, defy the norm, challenging the waves and stereotypes alike. We are honored to partner with Stephanie as we continue our commitment to source locally, and her story is as interesting as her craft.

Behind our SingleThread Wine Shop
Behind every aspect of SingleThread’s offerings is a passionate, creative and knowledgeable team. Whether it’s our Farm Store, our CSA program or our Wine Shop, the origin is organic and thoughtful. SingleThread Wine shop was born in 2020 during the pandemic when we wanted to start sharing our wine program beyond our dining room. Our Wine Director and team were able to creatively pivot and elevate the SingleThread wine experience by bringing it into the homes of our guests.
During that time we also joined Sonoma Family Meal as we moved our operation mainly outdoors. We had the privilege of donating meals to families in need, alongside offering nourishing, farm inspired meals to safely enjoy at home. The SingleThread Wine Shop became an extension of these efforts.

SingleThread and Cuzen Matcha
Chef Kyle Connaughton is pleased to announce a new recipe collaboration with Oakland, California-based Cuzen Matcha.
Eijiro Tsukada, founder of Cuzen Matcha, and Chef Kyle first met in 2016. By 2020, the relationship between Cuzen Matcha and SingleThread expanded with both entrepreneurs experimenting with Cuzen Matcha’s high-quality, freshly ground matcha, which has a distinctly smooth, balanced flavor and gives the drinker a mellow, focused energy that lasts. Their goal was to develop recipes that would highlight the distinctive umami flavors found uniquely in Cuzen Matcha’s offering. Eventually Chef Kyle began to offer Cuzen Matcha machines in the SingleThread Inn’s guest rooms, as well as integrate its matcha into a selection of lattes and smoothies available to guests throughout the property.
