To everything, there is a season!
Reid's Orchard & Winery is content to wait until the time is right to pick our fruit and produce - we pick our fruit and wine grapes at the peak moment of ripeness to insure you have the best flavor and freshest selection possible.
Here is our crop list and when we expect to begin and end the harvest for each crop.
