Heritage Park is a six-acre historic venue in Santa Fe Springs, California, set on the restored grounds of the Hawkins Ranch, which prospered in the 1880s.

The park accommodates a variety of events — from wedding ceremonies and receptions to photo sessions, corporate picnics, and private parties. The Plant Conservatory, originally built around 1870, provides an intimate ceremony setting, while the historic Carriage Barn and surrounding park grounds suit larger gatherings.

These are the forces that propel us forward in our lives. These are the characteristics that we seek in ourselves and others. Our company, TYGE, was founded on the strength of the human spirit, and we infuse every bottle of wine we produce with our ruggedly individual approach to winemaking. We have been farming in the same way for four generations, since a time when lands were still undiscovered and wild places were still unexplored. Our wine club was founded on a nostalgic sense of adventure: to venture forth into uncharted territory with good wine, good people, and good times, and to have a good time doing it. Creating the finest, most flavorful, and fearless wines that reflect our own sense of adventure is our mission. We hope to broaden the horizons of our palates through our work. Our founder is fond of saying that "every bottle is an adventure," and this sentiment extends beyond the flavors contained within. The wine we drink, like the food we eat, is meant to be shared—it is a source of shared adventures, just like the food we eat. We'll drink, eat, mingle, and discover new things at Club Tyge as a group. Our goal is to motivate you to seek out and experience new things on your own. Additionally, you can be the author of your own story.
