Good evening from North Florida! We have a small regenerative ranch here where we raise cattle, horses, chickens and geese. We love the farm life. Have been enjoying wine for many years, but now finally have the time to commit to making wine and doing it right. (Hopefully.) So happy to have found this forum! Especially the threads for beginners. We are game and ready to jump in. Goals include starting with some fruit wines, planting some grapes this year, and let's see where this takes us!

Welcome. There are Quite a few folks from Florida on the forum. Good luck growing grapes down there. I have been seeing more about varieties that can handle your heat and humidity.
