Event Details

This course is part of a three part lecture series, offered by:

"Woods Wine - Backyard Vineyard Consulting". 

This lecture series was developed by, and is taught by, Ed Kwiek.  Ed has operated his own Backyard Vineyard since 2000.  As few as 12 vines can produce a bottle of wine for every weekend of the entire year!

This course will cover how to make your dream of having a Backyard Vineyard a reality. The "nuts and bolts" of starting up and maintaining a Backyard Vineyard will be discussed.  Installation topics include preparing your soil, installing your trellis, and planting your vines.  Maintenance topics include managing the vineyard floor, training your vines, pruning fundamentals, petiole analysis,and pest control.

This is a very practical course that will provide the students with the information needed to roll up their sleeves and get to work.  If you enjoy having a garden, you'll love having a Backyard Vineyard.
