October
The month harvest is in full swing here in the Columbia Valley.
Apples are being plucked from their trees,
Grapes are being transported to the winey,
There is a feeling of accomplishment in the air as the fruits of this years labor are off to market.
Fall colors on the Wahluke Slope are in full force. Trees are dropping their leaves. The vineyards are turning golden and orange with some red sprinkled throughout the long rows.
What signifies fall for you?
For myself, fall begins in late summer when a certain virus in wine grapes turns the leaves from healthy and thriving green to the beautiful but problematic red. It sure is beautiful, isn't it?
