Re: Free Grape and Wine Workshop in Lawrence
Thanks for the post Frank. I plan on attending. We have grapes and elderberries that I'd like to use for wine. Elderberries are a cinch, just let them grow. Grapes on the other hand take more work, which I need to learn.
Looking forward to it.
Looking forward to it.

So how did this go? I ended up having to go to a friend's daughter's 6th grade orchestra concert. I'm sure I had way more fun
Thanks!
