We will be harvesting our red grapes this Sunday, September 25th at 12pm (noon). It's just two rows this time, and we will be using our equipment to crush and press some of the grapes. If that sounds fun, please let me know if you'd like to join us. All you need is a pair of gloves, and be able to walk about a quarter of a mile through the pasture to our vineyard.

We will provide some music and cold beer for those who are able to lend a hand. Thanks! Will and Iza

First harvest of our white Itasca grapes. We kept 6 gallons of juice for ourselves, and sold 1,500 lbs. to Bailey's Run Winery in New Glarus. Thank you to our group of volunteer pickers.

We badly wanted to host a vineyard party to thank all of those that helped plant vines, but we aren't getting enough sleep to pull it off. Nevertheless, thank you to everyone that helped us this year!
