Grape Harvest: St. Croix, Frontenac and Corot Noir
Turtle Run WineryHarvesting grapes is on my mind! This Saturday at 7:00 AM or when you can arrive, we'll be harvesting St. Croix, Frontenac and Corot Noir grapes. If you would like to help, or your organization wants to help, great. The weather forecast has been dicey earlier in the week, but it's looking good for Saturday! Whoosh, right? We normally pick from 7:00 to 12:00 Noon. Some folks I know can't get here right at 7:00 and that's fine. 8:00 works too! FYI, how in the *&^%$ world did weeds grow so fast in 2 weeks? I just finished hand weeding the Frontenac vineyard and our teenage super helpers (back in school) hand weeded St. Croix and part of Frontenac. Hashtag, we don't like the commercial herbicides here! Here is a picture of catawba, another grape we grow and the difference in the photos is about a month in time. Cheers, Jim
