Concord Grapes





We started our little Concord grape patch about 15 years ago with three vines and planted them next to our shed where they get sun most of the day. Concord grapes are native to North America.   I've never known how to prune them like an expert, but we still get a nice crop each year, enough for juice, jelly and snacking.  We always know when they're ready to pick just by walking by the vines and smelling that wonderful grape aroma! And, of course, by the taste test : )
