About Templeton
Nestled in rolling hills dotted with ancient oaks, Templeton pulses with an authentic Central Coast rhythm that feels worlds away from pretense. Here, award-winning wineries like Castoro Cellars and Adelaida pour exceptional Rhône varietals while Main Street's charming storefronts house everything from antique treasures to farm-fresh fare at McPhee's Grill. The morning fog lifts to reveal golden grasslands stretching toward the Santa Lucia Mountains, creating that quintessential California dream where every sunset feels like a personal invitation to stay just one more day.

TempletonTempleton Library launches summer reading program
Summer is almost here, and the Templeton Library is ready to keep young minds busy with its annual Summer Reading Program. Running from June 11 through August 15, kids and teens ages 1 to 17 can track their reading hours to earn prizes. The theme this year is 'Stars, Stripes, and Stories,' and it’s a wonderful way to encourage a love of books while school is out. I love that this program includes everyone from toddlers to teens—it’s a true community effort. The Templeton Community Guide shared the news, and I’ve already heard local parents planning their library visits. Whether you’re a regular or haven’t visited in a while, this is a great excuse to stop by, grab a stack of books, and maybe win a prize or two. Let’s make this a summer of stories, Templeton!
TempletonTempleton CHP office gains first female officer in decades
The Templeton CHP office is marking a historic milestone with the arrival of Officer Knight, the first woman to serve in its ranks in decades. For a community that values its close-knit, family-oriented character, this is more than just a personnel change—it's a quiet but powerful shift in representation. As the Templeton Community Guide first reported, Officer Knight brings a fresh perspective to a role that has long been male-dominated in this area. Locals know the CHP office as a steady presence on our roads, from Highway 101 to the winding vineyard lanes. Officer Knight's assignment reminds us that public safety here is evolving, and that the faces behind the badge are becoming as diverse as the communities they serve. It's a small step with big meaning for Templeton, and one that's worth celebrating.
TempletonTempleton Beer Run returns in June
Mark your calendars, Templeton — the Templeton Beer Run is making its return this June, and it’s more than just a fun day of exercise and refreshments. Hosted by the Templeton Recreation Foundation and Templeton Recreation Department, this beloved community tradition raises funds directly for local parks and recreation programs that keep our town active and connected. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just in it for the post-race brews, this event brings neighbors together for a great cause. As highlighted in the Templeton Community Guide, the Beer Run has become a staple of our local calendar, blending fitness, fellowship, and fundraising in true Central Coast style. It’s a chance to enjoy our beautiful surroundings while supporting the very spaces where our kids play and families gather. So lace up your sneakers and get ready to toast to a stronger Templeton — one mile and one pint at a time.
