Our Top 10 Photos From The Farm For 2014

As we do every year around Christmas time – we look back and select our “Top 10 Favorite Photos” taken at the farm throughout the year. Some are selected for the beautiful colors that mother nature provides through all four seasons – while others – like the picture of our first grapes to ever appear in our little vineyard – are simply selected because of their personal meaning.

We would also like to take this time to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!

And with that – here are our top 10 photos – we hope you enjoy!

The finished project

Our first fire in our new fire pit we built this past year.

Freshly canned Apple-Cinnamon Jelly – A new favorite treat and recipe of Mary’s!

Its a good feeling to know that everything grown on our farm is based upon pure organic principals

A favorite picture of the farm in early fall – it is hard to believe this was all overgrown grass just four short years ago.

The upper pergola in August – this was our first pergola ever built at the farm and remains one of our favorite spaces to enjoy

Our first grapes to form in our little vineyard! Although we pruned many of the starters off this year to encourage stronger growth in coming years – we left these few to see the first fruits of our labor.
