Cedar Point has been on my bucket list for a while, and is now on my teenage kids' bucket lists. Thinking of a short trip this summer to drive up there from N. Va and spend probably two days at the park - maybe a little more, if it makes sense to stay longer. Any suggestions on lodging and...

I recently spent $6,500 on this registered Black Angus bull. I put him out with the herd but he just ate grass and wouldn't even look at a cow. I was beginning to think I had paid more for that bull than he was worth. Anyway......I had the Vet come and take a look at him. He said, the bull was...

I swore I'd avoid it, but am now a little addicted.

...it was over. Crush happened today, a day ahead of schedule. Huge thank you to @mainshipfred who volunteered to help unload the truck from CA and was kind enough to get my grapes and bring them by on his way back. Had a few raisined clusters in the Pinot Noir, along with a slight touch of...

Got this link earlier today. A good summary of the process, the anticipation of getting new grapes going, and the joy of finally getting through press and that first racking...

I've been using Opti-Red as a pre-fermentation additive for years, but am thinking of trying Noblesse this year. FWIW, I'm making a Grenache, a Pinot Noir and a Malbec. Anyone have experience with both or care to share your thoughts on Noblesse? TIA.

Just forwarding some info from a member of the Washington Winemakers. If you've ever thought a bout making a peach wine, this might be a great chance with minimal investment. "Twin Springs Fruit Farm, which is west of Gettysburg, PA has a serious surplus of the best peaches in the East. I...
