VASCM: "I don't have to pay you for your grapes, this is an unsecured purchase" - Mike Ballard

[Candice Wozniak]

Free wine grapes.
There are free wine grapes!
My harvest was pitiful this year, due to powdery mildew, in spite of spraying every 2 weeks with Rally.
So I had to purchase some beautiful machine harvested wine grapes in Manteca.
The machine left lots of large ripe clusters on the vine.
The grower just leaves them.
If you want free wine grapes, all you have to do is hand pick the remaining fruit!
