Lazy Acre was the name given to an acre of land carved out of the family farm Glenn & Evelyn Dahl built a home on in 1967. This acre soon became a gathering spot for family and friends and over the years grew into over a dozen acres with timber and a pond. In 2012 Steve, Kerry, Dennis and Darlene (Dahl) Madson shared a dream of plan

ting a vineyard and someday building a winery. The first trellis posts were "planted" in the fall of 2012 and a vineyard was planted in the spring of 2013 with Frontenac gris and Marquette grapes and the second vineyard was planted in 2015. Lazy Acre Vineyard began to produce estate wine from its grapes in 2017. Construction on the tasting room began in 2018. The land that Lazy Acre Vineyard sits on has been in our family for over five generations and has been "home" to friends and family for just as long. Our goal is to continue to make Lazy Acre Vineyard a place where everyone feels welcome, leaves with a joyful heart and a desire to return. Come and enjoy great wine, good friends, and family. Make memories while taking a stroll through the vineyard, through the woods or by the pond or simply just enjoy being lazy.

🍇 A few extra picking hands this weekend-Sept 5th

Before our BIG 11th Annual Pickin', Stompin' & Sippin'! harvest on September 12, we have a smaller job to get done — our white grapes are ready!

We don’t normally put out a public call for help with our white-grape harvest since we have fewer vines and usually round up a few friends, but this year we thought we’d ask. ❤️

If you have a little time this weekend and would enjoy spending it in the vineyard helping us pick, send us a message! We could use a few extra hands. 🍇

As Grandpa always says about work, “It’s just time and effort.” 💜And we sure appreciate anyone willing to give us a little of both!

And if you can’t make it this weekend — save those picking hands for September 12! That’s the BIG one. We have a lot more red grapes to bring in and we’ll need all the help we can get!

This weekend = a little pick 🍇
September 12 = THE BIG PICK! 🍇🍇🍇
