For many years before planting our vineyard, we have entertained various recreational groups, including bicyclers, walking clubs, canoeists and kayakers, and horse events; and the farm has been the setting for weddings, parties, reunions, company picnics, school events and other social occasions. We have accommodated these usages simultaneously with our farming and, now, viniculture work. We have loved our farm, difficult and challenging as it has been at times, and we continue to welcome our stream of visitors and hosting imaginative social events.
