We were again fortunate to have a great weather day for our Fourth Annual Yadkin Valley Grape Festival. Several thousand visitors enjoyed fine wines, great food, and wonderful entertainment in Downtown Yadkinville. Almost 1400 chose to sample the wines of the many Yadkin Valley Wineries that participated in this
year's event.

The Yadkin Valley Grape Festival is free and open to the public, including families with children
(for your safety and the safety of others, please leave your pets at home). Vendor displays and music will take place adjacent to the wine tasting area. Food and non-wine beverages will be available for purchase from selected vendors. Wine tasters must be at least 21 years of age (all tasters will be required to show positive photo identification) to obtain a tasting wristband and Yadkin Valley Grape Festival engraved wine glass.
Picnic tables will be available and there is plenty of lawn space for blankets. We will be having children's activities going on throughtout the day sponsored by the Yadkin County Smart Start.

We will also be having our FourthAnnual Ginny B. Motorcyle Ride to benefit Mountain Valley Hospiceand the Hospice Pallative Care Center in Winston-Salem. The ride will be a great scenic route of the country and you chance to explore the vineyards of Yadkin County. Click here for more information on the Hospice Ride.
