Grape Pickers needed Saturday 7:30 am, AUG 22nd
It’s time to HARVEST the red grapes (merlot, cabernet sauvignon, sangiovese)
Time: 7:30 AM – until finished (okay, whenever you roll out of bed, but I’LL be out there early BEFORE it gets too hot)
Date: Saturday, August 22nd, 2009
Location: 21724 Hill Road, Salado, just take I-35 exit 279, half mile up the hill from interstate
Bring: Sunscreen, bug spray, big hat, pruners (optional-we’ve got plenty to lend)
Dress comfortably. I recommend shoes and socks because I always manage to stand on an ant mound and don’t notice until it’s too late. It’s kind of late for chiggers and should be too dry for mosquitoes, but you might want bug spray.
Watch out for wasps, spiders, mockingbirds, ants. This year I haven’t seen a single snake in the vineyard, so no worries. 😉
Hope you can make it, if not we’ll have more chances next year!
