Niagara Grape Glean!

Have you ever considered how much locally produced fruit must go to waste every season? The landscaping company I’m currently working for has a client who owns a grape vineyard in Niagara. Due to major construction, the grapes weren’t being harvested this year.


What a perfect opportunity!

Although I was too busy with work to head down to the vineyard and see the glory for my own eyes (endless grapes) we processed the last of the grape supply into grape juice just last week.

From the amount of grapes in the picture we produced grape juice, grape jelly, grape jam, raisins, fruit leather, and had a bunch of grapes leftover.

If you’re in the Hamilton area let me know if you want concord jam.  I can hook you up.
