Attend all our events and looking for a new one to explore? This event is for YOU. An opportunity for all our members to connect, share stories and make a difference. Kompoocha Brewing is hosting us on March 21st from 11am to 1pm. They are located at: 42065 Zevo Dr Ste B7 Temecula, CA 92590.

Kompoocha Brewing was started in 2020 by couple Victoria Monroy and Christian Larsen. Victoria graduated with a degree in Biology from UCSD with plans to go to veterinary school. After three years as a vet tech, a life changing volunteer opportunity in Thailand, and an autoimmune disease diagnosis her plans quickly changed. Likewise, Christian was in the midst of joining the Navy Special Forces. When Victoria was diagnosed and decided to pursue starting a business Christian abandoned his plans and joined her!

It took about 6 months for Victoria to design everything from the business cards, bottles labels, to the website as well as file all the necessary paperwork to become a legitimate business and adapt her home brewing recipes for larger quantities. In late September 2020 Christian and Victoria began selling their bottles at their first farmers market. For the first couple of months Vail HQ Tuesday Farmers Market was their only market. Slowly they began adding more markets in more cities. By the new year they had expanded to Murrieta and their first Vegan Depot in Corona! Their bottles sold out almost every time with customers buying them for their unique flavors, smooth taste, and their beloved pitbull logo. By summer it was time for a change. The plans for the business were always to make it as eco-friendly as possible as well as fun! In comes the trap trailer (unofficially named Tappy)! Bottles had now been replaced with reusable growlers adorned once again with their beloved logo. The two person team was selling over 100 growlers a month throughout Temecula, Murrieta, Corona, Riverside, and San Diego. Sales eventually expanded into wholesale settings with their first wholesale account as E.A.T Marketplace in Temecula. By the end of their first calendar year Victoria and Christian managed to sell over 2,000 gallons of kombucha, over 1,000 growlers, and donate $2,520 to local rescues. Admirable numbers but space limitations at their hourly rented kitchen kept them from making more.

Since then, 2025 has placed the couple in a position they never saw coming. Now the owners and operators of a 2,000+ square foot brewing space and tasting room, Victoria and Christian find themselves supplying the community with not only fresh kombucha but also the freshest food thanks to their recently opened plant based cafe. The space has served as a community hub for public and private gatherings, for strangers to become friends, and for minds to open to the wonders of kombucha and clean eating!

The admission is free, as we are planning this as our New Member Party... and seasoned members are welcome too! There will be giveaways and lots of fun! New members get free tastings of Kombucha as a thank you and welcome to joining our club in 2026! Food will be available for purchase as well. And bring your pups as Kompoocha is clearly dog friendly. As a bonus, with each purchase of Kompoocha, a portion of the profits goes directly to local animal rescue. They work closely with many 501c3 animal rescues to fund surgeries, pay for care, and even provide the necessary funds to get an animal off the euthanasia list and into safe and loving arms.

We do ask that you RSVP as soon as possible here: msreg.com/newmember2026 so we can give our hosts a head's up for the tastings. If you're interested in caravaning over, check out our EV Cars and Coffee that morning at 8:30am at our regular Cars and Coffee location in front of Batter Up Bakery. From there, we will lead drive that will caravan over to the party. Or you can just show up to the new member party at 11am! The event at Kompoocha is a New Member Party, so open to Vineyard Region Members only. Hope to see you there!
