The fourth annual Franklin Wine Festival—a celebration of wine, cuisine and culture— is slated for October 24 at The Factory at Franklin. The event is open to the public and features numerous wine and food tastings that are simply second to none.

All proceeds will benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee. The presenting sponsor once again is Nissan North America, and the event is hosted by Cool Springs Wines & Spirits.

Big Brothers Big Sisters' mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of children in need and to assist them in achieving their highest potential by facilitating a professionally supported one-to-one mentoring relationship with a committed volunteer.

In short, by supporting the Franklin Wine Festival, you're helping change the way our children are growing up in Middle Tennessee.

Cheers!
