Outings, BBQs, Campouts and Clinics

 

    Want something different for your next company outing or family get togeather? 

 

      Come to "The Land", 30 acres of East Texas with plenty of open space to set up a camp, an RV or host a large BBQ.  

 

    We have several scheduled annual events at our Vineyard and invite you to take advantage of our experience and plan other events there as well.    Annually we have a pruning party -  freshair, exercise and wholesome food go along way to "getting healed".  Since this is in the early spring, many people find this more fun than our Harvest which is in the hotter months.

 

   Harvest is the most favorite of all events, where we pick grapes in the early evening, crush and de-stem, drink fresh juice and enjoy the evening relaxing and fellowshipping with our fellow laborers. . 

 

    Some events that we can bring to you.  Texas style BBQs, wine making and wine tasting events can be brought to your door step in just about any size you want.  With our 30 ft smoker and grill, we haven't found an event we couldn't cover. 


Group Camping or Team Building
    
   Our grape clinics are unique opportunities to get to know others while learning the nuances of harvesting, pruning, or winemaking in one of our hands on clinics.
    Situated on 30 acres in East Texas, our camp ground enjoys the peace and quiet of the country, with wide open skies and clear air.   Surrounded by live oaks, hickories, and pines, your group can learn how to care for a vineyard during the day and relax those tired muscles clusterd around an old fashioned camp fire. 
    Your group can make their own meals, or let us cook a meal for you over the campfire.  As an ultimate treat, our team can fire up the smoker and smoke your meal or provide a full fare barbeque for even larger crowds. 
    With plenty of place to expand, even the largest of groups will find a place for privacy.   
     Our campground is basic, but it does have a toilet, shower, electricity and water available.  We also have an RV hookup but no sewage facilities.
     Should a group book time during a burn ban, we may not receive authorization for a campfire.   If we do receive authorization, don't be surprised if we hit you up for a donation to our volunteer fire department!




The True Vine

During Spring each year, we host a unique uplifting experience tying the pruning and buding of the vines to Gods plan for all of us.
" I am the true vine, and my Father the Vinedresser".   Learn what Jesus meant in John 15 in a unique way as we tie His words to the actual pruning of the vines.   Participants can campout for the evening and participate in a morning vineyard service followed by a breaking of the fast Texas style.
