Cherry Grove Vineyards is located outside of Anamosa which is about
20 miles from Cedar Rapids, IA. We are on the edge of USDA Zone 4B
and 5 which means only winter hardy varieties grow here.
I have 6 year old Concord Vines.
I have 1 year old St. Croix, Valiant, Aurore, LaCrosse, St. Pepin, and
Niagara.
This year I am planting King of the North, Bluebell, Praire Star, Leon
Millet, Frontenac, and Oberlin Noir.
I am planning on planting 2 acres of wine grapevines in spring 2004.
I am setting up my first trellis system this year. |
