Information About Pick-Your-Own Muscadine Grapes
- Our pick-your-own is done in pre-paid gallon buckets ($14/gal). Please purchase a bucket before you begin picking.
- We are open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 10AM – 5PM. Please ensure you arrive with sufficient time to pick, as the vineyard closes promptly at 5PM (last entry at 4:30PM).
- Harvest months are often hot, so bring water, a hat, and sunscreen.
- Muscadine grapes ripen individually and must be picked by hand one at a time. No scissors or pruners, please!
- We accept cash, credit, and debit card.
- CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES.
- If you plan to pick in bulk (100 lb. or more), please contact us in advance about bulk pricing and timing to pick for wine, jelly, and jam production.
- To ensure your pet’s safety and the comfort of all our guests, pets are not permitted on the premises (except working dogs).
- Because we do not use pesticides, there can be insects (ex. bees, spiders) in the vines. You may want to wear gloves.
