The annual Food Not Fentanyl event drew crowds to Pronzini Farms outside Petaluma on Sunday, Aug. 30, 2026, for a special event and concert co-hosted by Petaluma restaurant Sax's Joint and Sebastopol nonprofit Micah's Hugs. Hoping to raise awareness about fentanyl overdose and teach life-saving readiness, organizers provided Narcan training while speakers from families impacted by the fentanyl epidemic told their stories. Organizers say they raised almost $50,000 for Micah's Hugs.
