(UPDATED: April 08, 2024)A visitor writes in June 2006: "The summer would not be complete without at least 6 visits to the Phillips Farm. My 3 children including 3 year old twins love to pick at the farm We start the season with strawberries and end in the fall with apples. The farm is quiet, plentiful and not busy at all. We feel we have the place to ourselves. Mr. Phillips has done a wonderful job raising his crops. Thank you to the Phillips Farm for great family fun and for the fabulous fruit for my pies and jams."

Wine Grapes... for making wine.
These are obviously specialized grapes that generally do not taste very good when eaten fresh, but do make excellent wine. Most are Italian
or French varietals (like Pinot Noir) that are grafted onto native American grape roots (like Concord) because the American variety roots are
resistant to fungus and diseases that devastate vineyards.
Grape picking tips
Pick ripe: Grapes do not ripen after they are picked. Of course, wine grapes are unique and for sweet dessert wines, like Auslese,
are often picked after a frost or after they have shriveled. The wineyard will know what's best for you.
Appearance: Look for heavy, firm grapes
To harvest grapes, carefully cut the grape clusters from the vine using pruning shears. Be careful not to bruise or damage the fruit
or the surrounding vines.
