It's a vineyard!

Our once bare land in Carlton, Oregon is now a vineyard!  There is just over 3 acres planted and it looks amazing!  The vines are a mix of 1 year old and 2 year old plants.  They are all now in grow tubes.  The trellis and the irrigation system will be installed soon.

Here are some shots of the vineyard:




This is overlooking the vineyard from the house site.

It is hard to see, but Mt. Jefferson is off in the distance.

 Each of the grow tubes has a vine in it.  It is hard to see, but there is a vine at the bottom.


Here is the vine with no grow tube.  In just a few years, that vine will produce quality grapes for us to make into wine!



The real purpose of the trip was to complete the solar panel installation.  There are now 13 solar panels on the roof of the shed for the well and irrigation system.


This is me (Beth) and 5-month-old Jensen.
