The rewards of growing grapes

Three out of four seasons of the year the couple of grape vines I have give me their gifts. In the spring when the young tender leaves are about the size of your hand they can be picked and made into delicious stuffed grape-leaves. Summer time provides sweet juicy grapes that are perfect for snacking or if you have more than you can eat they can be made into a special wine. Fall comes with the task of cutting down the vines but then they can be formed into wreaths or other shapes for beautiful door decorations and more.



I love growing an

assortment of plants but the grapes seem to provide me with most variety of gifts in return.
