Join us for a hands-on day at Gone Fishin' Farm as we install a brand new, small vineyard! We’ll be prepping the soil, building trellises, setting up irrigation, and planting 40 grape vines. Whether you’re experienced or just curious about vineyard work, it’s a great opportunity to learn, lend a hand, and enjoy a day outdoors.
