About the Festival:
Dear Wine Friend,

magic of harvest for a day – without having to quit their
day jobs!
Guests can look
forward to: * Breakfast in the Vineyards * Grape
Picking * Bunch Sorting * Stomping your own grapes * Grape vs
Wine Tasting * Harvest Market * Vineyard Tractor Trips * Must
tasting * Wine tasting by Horse Cart * Cooking with
Grapes…. and much more!
Groups are small and
intimate to ensure that you have the very best hands-on
experience and all activities need to be pre-booked by 24
February 2009. But hurry as many of the tickets will
booked by then!
From
the beginning of December you'll be able to see the programme
online at www.handsonharvest.com
and plan your weekend. A lot of the activities are also kiddie-friendly,
which makes this a perfect opportunity for a family break away
weekend.
Harvest Day Tips
The day
could start out cool and can easily warm up by early
afternoon, so we suggest layered clothing and sturdy
shoes or boots. Sandals or open toes are not
recommended.
Bring a pair of gloves, especially if you don’t want
your hands to get sticky from picking the grapes.
Dishwashing gloves works better than work gloves as they
are flexible.
Bring a hat, sunblock and a bottle of water, especially
if you are taking part in one of the more lengthy
activities
Bring your medicine if you are allergic to bees or get
hayfever
Don’t forget your camera as you will have plenty
opportunity to capture your hands-on harvest experience and
you're welcome to forward it to us afterwards.
Most importantly, remember you are here to have a great
time!
