In the last two days Rachael, Jason, and I planted out 45 bare-root grapes. It is important to get bare-root plants into the ground before it gets too warm and the plants break their winter dormancy. We planted a diversity of mostly seedless varieties including: Reliance, Sweet Seduction, Venus, Diamond Muscat, Dawn Grapes, New York Muscat, Golden Muscat, Red Flame, Perlette, and Concord. The grape section begins on the west side of the orchard and spans 1900 Sq feet. The next grape project will involve creating a trellis system to train the vines laterally.
