Start your vineyard one bonsai vine at a time

We’ve all thought about starting a vineyard–come on, a few sips of a fine wine and you start to fantasize about living a life surrounded by vines and with a cellar of fine wine. And then the next morning cold reality sets in.

Well, now there’s an affordable way to get one vine closer to that goal. The Sonoma Winegrape Commission is selling “bonsai” cabernet sauvignon vines that even bear fruit. Larry, who works for the organization, told me that they get the vines for free and that all the proceeds benefit vineyard worker education. He also sent along the above picture of his own one-vine vineyard. Guard cat not included.
