We’ve been selling our grass-fed beef at the Trinity County Farmer’s Market in Weaverville for several years, and after being asked to provide wine tastings, too, we’re looking forward to having the necessary permits in place to begin pouring by the end of July or the first part of August.
The farmer’s market provides a wonderful range of locally grown fresh vegetables, fruit, eggs, and honey. Fruits range from raspberries, loganberries, strawberries, nectar berries, blueberries, and melons in the summer, with apples and pears in the fall. For vegetables, there are heirloom tomatoes, lettuces, chard, kale, beets, snap peas, summer squash, cucumbers, onions, broccoli, cabbage, corn, peppers, green beans, and eggplant, in season. Fall treats include pumpkins and winter squash. Trinity Alps Honey sells their wonderful Mountain Blackberry Honey, courtesy of hard-working local bees.

Back in the vineyards, we’ve finished weeding, pulled down all the wires, installed a new pump system on the pond, and a new Yardney sand filtration system. All low volume, sprinkler, micro-spray and trickle irrigation systems have one common requirement for success—clean water. Without it, these systems fail. What our new filtration system will accomplish is—
- Remove of algae, slime, and other organic contaminant as well as sand, rock, grit and other inorganic contaminants
- Protect drip and micro-irrigation systems from plugging with fine filtration removal down to 200 mesh or 75 micron
With eager customers and new equipment, we’re ready to grow some great grapes and taste this fall’s wines.
See you at the farmer’s market!
