I took a lot of pictures at the St. Croix Vineyard in Stillwater on September 12th. I will be spreading out the pictures into a few posts. I loved taking pictures there and really loved people watching. This was their Grape Stomp weekend and vineyard tours.
They also have an apple orchard and lots of apple and apple products for sale.
They also had maple syrup and they also sell honey.
They had this cool bee hive for our viewing inside the store. It was actually hard to get a clear shot since the bees are very quick to move.
This was interesting to see an old shiny ford truck in the building.
After we looked around their we did a little wander around before the tour started. There were tons of people there enjoying the beautiful day and the games and events.
They also had a live band playing all the time.
Some folks actually came to make a big mess doing the grape stomping!
Here is a view of some of the vineyard. I didn’t have a vantage point where I could capture the WHOLE place. Wouldn’t that have been wonderful?
Our tour guide shared some pretty cool details about growing grapes.
How they are processed once they are picked, what happens to them.
Finally, what happens once they are bottled.
Here they are lined up in their ready to sell location.
I enjoyed our day out in the sun so very much! Tomorrow though I will share the rest of the shots I took at the vineyard. Clearly this post is long enough
