Hunt Country Vineyards



My daughter and I visited Hunt Country Vineyards last week. We had a fantastic time tasting wines and shopping in their gift shop! Everyone at Hunt Country is wonderful to talk to and we were treated to a personal wine tasting with Joyce Hunt! She graciously came over to the tasting room after just giving her Bernese Mountain Dog, Hedy a bath. I was very impressed with several of their wines and purchased many to take home to enjoy for the summer. To visit Hunt Country check out their website at: www.huntwines.com or find them on facebook!

Radishes


Yesterday I came home with local asparagus, strawberries, radishes, spinach and rhubarb! Made a huge spinach and radish salad for dinner! Was really refreshing! I am not a huge radish fan, but in the salad and fresh they really are great.
