You’re invited to the Texas Wine & Grape Growers Association’s Grape Camp, October 7, at Adelphos Cellars in Lubbock, Texas.
A tradition born from post-harvest fireside chats amongst High Plains grape growers, Grape Camp began as a place to reflect on the recent harvest, discuss successes, address challenges, and collaboratively plan for the future. Over the years, it has taken root as a must-attend educational and networking event for new and veteran Texas grape growers and wine industry professionals.
