Are you looking for a buyer for your grapes this season? Don’t wait until harvest to locate a purchaser. Wineries who will need grapes this year will want to contact growers now to discuss their requirements and to make arrangements with you.

Now is the time to advertise the availability of your grapes. Your ad can be placed on the WGGA web site classifieds section  free of charge. Simply go to the classified section of this website, choose a category, click “Add a new Ad in this category” and place an ad with the following minimum information:

•    Name & location of your vineyard
•    Grape varieties offered for sale.
•    Number of vines expected to produce for each variety.
•    Your contact information.

Additional information that would assist the winery to make a decision to contact you includes the age of vines, estimated harvest quantity (number of pounds or tons), estimated harvest date and information regarding last year’s harvest such as Brix, quantity harvested and date harvested.

This is a tool that can also be used for “Wanted” ads for grapes along with “Equipment”  and “Employment” ads -  anything related to the grape and wine industry in Wisconsin.  Each classified ad posted will be approved before it shows up on the website.  If you have any questions, please contact info@wigrapes.org.
