Inside the Annual Wine Procurement Party
Last month, the Grades of Green team came together to support the annual Wine Procurement Party for the upcoming Verte Gala—an event that plays a key role in making the gala truly unforgettable. Many of our board members and friends of Grades of Green brought their own wine to contribute to the wine auction at Verte. The party was hosted at the stunning Kirkpatrick residence and organized by Shaya Kirkpatrick, co-founder of Grades of Green.
Guests were warmly welcomed, checked in, and their wine donations were carefully collected and logged. While enjoying delicious pizza from Olive Wood Pizza and refreshing drinks, attendees had the opportunity to mingle, relax, and take in the breathtaking views of the residence. Each bottle donated helps make the gala a success, and the evening was filled with laughter, good conversation, and a shared commitment to a great cause.
Our team helped ensure everything ran smoothly—bartending, greeting guests at check-in, and logging every bottle with precision. We also captured the excitement of the evening through dynamic action shots.
Thanks to this incredible teamwork, the wine procurement process is well on its way to making the Verte Gala a night to remember.
A heartfelt thank-you to Shaya Kirkpatrick for graciously hosting this year’s Wine Procurement Party and to everyone who joined in support of Grades of Green.
Here’s to a successful Verte Gala ahead!
