Grape harvest 2013

It's this time of year again! Those of you who have been reading the blog for a long time probably remember our friends who have a biodynamic vineyard and how we were there to plant the first vines in 2009, when the girls were still tiny. We were there in 2010 and then in 2011 for the first grape harvest (it was a very small harvest, we were done in 2 hours!). We missed them in 2012 since we were doing our roadtrip across the States. This year they did 6 days of harvesting. True to the tradition, Mamie Marie made a delicious meal for all the grape pickers!

i've never seen a vineyard with nets, what are they for?

The nets are for the birds... They cannot lose too many grapes to the birds... They also have electric fencing all around for deers...
