We sometimes rent a portion of a crop directly from the producer so that we can all start with the same raw material. The club was founded in May 1999 and has grown to 25 members by March 2007. Meetings are held at approximately monthly intervals- but on an irregular basis. New people are welcome, but please contact Club President Rick Wagner for further information.

UPCOMING MEETINGS


For 2008 individual members will get together independently and come up with intended projects.

Membership is open to any wine/beer/cider maker in Ontario (but only Amateurs can compete). For those not currently AWO members, the fee is $30 (which is sent to AWO). Growwine welcomes members of other AWO clubs to participate in our events. Please contact Club President Rick Wagner in advance to find out when and where the nuts will be gathered, or for information about joining...
