are you looking for the vines or just the grapes?

Here's a spot that sells wine grape vines. If you are looking for grapes to make your own wine try this google: buying wine grapes. It turned up a lot of source info.

Is there anyone one California who saves wine grape seeds? I have some apple seed varieties (Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, and MacIntosh). I'm looking for Spitzenburg apples and a few other varieties to swap. I am also working on citrus seeds and cherry seeds.

I have Steuben (mid Sept, purple-black, sweet, seeded), Ontario (mid Aug., white, seeded, sweet) and Buffalo (early Sept., blue-black, seeded, concord flavor). All are very disease resistant and I've never needed to spray them against mildew or fungal disorders. I will be pruning over the next week and can send cuttings if you're interested. I'm looking for plum scionwood if you know of anyone who has some. I also have scionwood for 41 varieties of apple. Mike appleman178@yahoo.com

Can I feed my worms the fermented wine grapes?

I don't know the first thing about VC that is why I was snooping around here today. Funny thing that caused me to do this is that about 1 month ago I too had about 20 pounds of grape must. I dug a hole in my raised bed & threw the musts in there & covered with soil. This particular area stays fairly wet as I am always dumping my dog's water bowl in there 3 times per day. Yesterday I was getting the bed ready for winter veggies & when I dug up the area where the grape musts were buried WOW! worms! hundreds of them in just one shovel turn. They were red in color. I quickly turned them back over to the way they were. I figured they must be good for the soil. Hence my sudden interest in worm composting.

Try eBay. I bought some Zinfandel vines there not long ago.

How did you do with those zinfindel vines? Did it take a good 2-3 years to get them up and coming? What is the yield per grapevine?

I am just DYING to add a bunch of concord grapevines to my suburban 'FARM" along with with the rest of the stuff i grow here, but i am hesitant, as i fear they will freeze over the harsh winters here in chicago..they are not CHEAP to buy..

WHERE IS ZONE 5?

Sunflower123, zone 5 is a ways north of you ... it's anywhere where the winter temperatures are -10 to -20 degrees F.

Haven't had any luck with wine grapes up here yet - I know that there are some vineyards that have successful plantings of Seyval and maybe some Cabernet Franc near me but I don't know where they got their plantings.

I have ordered from Double A as well. The vines are awsome.

I ordered my vines this year from Double A too. The nice thing about them is they have a huge variety to choose from and there is no minimum quantity required. I bought 3 vines of 5 varieties.
