Our Vineyard Story - A Dream Meets Reality

Описание: This is the story of our vineyard... so far. They say it's easy to make a small fortune by planting a vineyard... you just need to start out with a large fortune.

GENERAL SPECS:
19 Rows, 100 feet long
1200 foot elevation, Zone 5b
North Quabbin Region, Massachusetts
New England USA

We planted the top half in 2009 and the bottom half in 2010. We are a no-spray property (not 'certified organic' officially, but we don't put anything on our plants that we wouldn't eat.)

We started with 9 varietals of grapes and after several failed to produce fruit or became overrun with disease, we started pulling vines in 2013. We are slowly replacing our failed grapevines with heirloom dwarf apple trees trained in an espalier style on the existing trellis infrastructure. We live in apple country. Probably should have started there!

Here's an old school timelapse of the May 1, 2010 planting party. It was shot on an actual video tape:
