2009

2008

Yes its been hot but we've picked all the blackberries we could this year.  We're going through a drought for the past few months which hurts the plants some  but they are still doing good.  Maybe the summer months will be better.  Some of the last few rows of berries we planted a few years ago have produced good this year.  More likely better each year to come.

>>> August 05, 2008 ... a Tropical Storm:  "Edouard" traveling 7 m.p.h. passed through our farm area from 3-6 am with winds 30 m.p.h. and gust up to 75 m.p.h.   Though the eye hit land in Texas traveling 12 m.p.h., our farm caught the right side of the storm with the winds being the most problem.    However, we did not occur any damages.  We did get well needed rain for a few days.

>>> August 29, 2008 / September 01, 2008 ..."Hurricane Gustav" ...Didn't have any damage from this storm which is good.  There was a mandatory evacuation. 

>>> September 12, 2008  ..."Hurricane Ike" (winds of 110-130 m.p.h.)  come in land in Texas.  * * * * * * * *  * * * * * * * * This storm effected Texas and Louisiana coastal towns all the way north to I-10 and other areas further north.  Thankfully, our farm didn't have any damages.  WHAT A YEAR!

2007

This year is another good year.  Plenty of rain.  Our berry vines are getting larger/older and are producing more and more berries.  Each year we plant more rows of berries for a larger production of berries.  More berries, more fruit, more wine.   Enjoy!  

2006

This year was a good year with the weather.  Plenty of rain in the evening hours helps cut down the heat.  Our berry vines are getting larger/older and are producing more and more berries.  Each year we plant more rows of berries for a larger production of berries.  More berries, more fruit, more wine!  Though we may not be able to furnish everyone with our wine, this doesn't mean we can't try.

2005

Our fruit is multiplying more and more each year due to the determination and hard work involved.  This year has been a good year with the weather.  We are receiving plenty rain this summer (something we didn't receive last summer).  Though this year wasn't as good a year for the yield of fruit as last year, wine is still being made.  We will have a smaller amount of blackberry wine, but a larger amount in strawberry wine.  It all equals out.  Next year will be even better.

>>>  September 24 or 25th, 2005 "Hurricane Rita" did blow through our farm @ 140 m.p.h. (so Jack was told) but everything is alright.  Still in operation and our fruit/plants and fruit trees are doing fine.

2004

 It was a good year 2004 for our berries.  Weather was good through the winter 2003 and  spring time months 2004.  Our berries were large and plentiful.

Our Blackberry & Strawberry wines are made from our very own fresh grown berries with a blend of special fruits added to enhance their taste ...of this quality fine wine.
We hope you will enjoy every sip and come back for more.  This will go good listening to music CDs by: Jack Roux.  ______
