After we finished planting our herbs and flowers at home on Memorial Day Weekend we took a drive up to the Maragas wine making facility on Highway 97 in Culver. Maragas Winery and Oregon State University are collaborating to plant several grape varietals here to see which varieties will fare best in this high desert climate. |
