Got the local paper today and a new Vineyard just got planted a few miles from here. They are calling it Fruit of the Loon...after our state bird the loon.
They fenced 10 acres to keep the deer and such out and planted 900 Marquette vines. There was photos of a bunch of their friends helping them frncing, planting and putting the grow tubes around the plants. Their next planting will be Sabrevios and then La Crescent.
Will be interesting to see how these vines survive around here and what they intend to do with all those grapes.
I'll be trying to get some information in the future, I hope the paper does a follow up story.
Anyone tried these vines in cold areas????Edited by: Northern Winos
