Woodland Park Vineyards

Having grown up on a dairy farm here at Woodland Park, picking vegetables and fruit from my parents’ gardens and orchards was a seasonal activity. Harvesting and preserving the fruits was just as important. Canning green beans and tomatoes, curing meat in the fall, laying onions and potatoes in the cellar, was a part of our overall farm work. Working the dairy and feeding the farm animals was a daily chore. Growing and training young grapes and making food and wine is not a very big step from the farm chores of my childhood.
