Standard Pacific Homes is kicking off its Taste of Fall events, a celebration of the season held at different communities throughout the Bay Area this autumn.

Fine regional foods, beverages and desserts will be served, games will be provided for the children, and prizes given to each family.

"Standard Pacific is known for building sensational homes in outstanding neighborhoods throughout Northern California," says Standard Pacific East Bay Region President Tom Burrill. "We want families and singles alike to experience it firsthand during our Taste of Fall events." Special incentives and pricing should interest homeseekers as they tour the models.

In East County, Taste of Fall events will be held Nov. 11 from noon to

3 p.m. in Antioch at Monterra and in Oakley at Cortina.
