Volunteer Grape Harvest


Sat, Aug 31, 2024 | 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

1755 P Ave. Marengo, IA 52301

Immerse yourself in the first step of the winemaking process at our annual Grape Harvesting event! Walk amidst the lush vineyards at peak season and experience grape gathering firsthand with great company. Registration is completely free of charge, and you must register ahead of time to attend. Grape picking will be held from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. at Fireside Winery in Marengo on August 31st!

Following the grape harvesting, head to the tasting room to grab your free glass of wine, and our Assistant Winemaker Mark will lead registered volunteers on a guided Production Tour! We will have live music by local talent Sam Roberts from 1-3 p.m. Our tasting bar and kitchen will be open for additional food and drinks.

This year, our Grape Stomp Competition will be at a later date (September 21) along with our Harvest Celebration. We hope to see you at both events!
