Fresh from the Garden

October 20, 2017 It is that time of year, cool mornings and evenings and nice sunny afternoons.  When Pearl and I arrived today we were walking around the remnants of my summer garden, amongst the weeds and morning glories.  I thought maybe I would find a tomato or a pepper, but I was pleasantly surprised!  My arms were full of tomatoes, peppers and eggplant!  These are the pleasures of a garden, especially this time of the year.  I think a Ratatouille will be the perfect side dish to go along… Read More

Yoga

Friday October 13, 2017 What does Yoga have to do with wine?  Well, it does and it doesn’t.  I recently met Kim who is a local yoga instructor.  I asked her if she would like to come here and have classes.  We selected a date and 20 people came to enjoy yoga on the lawn near the farmhouse.

We  have had a wine club for many years.  Some have been members for over 12 years. That means this group has been picking up two bottles of wine every other month, usually a red and a white.  We think of these people as a special group…. Read More

Just come for a Visit

September 22, 2017 There does not need to be an event to come for a visit, to sit in the tasting room or under the oaks with a picnic and a bottle of wine.  It does take the willingness to have a conversation with others, or to just sit and relax and enjoy this beautiful time of the year.  Of course, if you want to bring your guitar you are welcome to do so, if you want to sing, you can do that too.  We have always felt that when… Read More
