Picture a Day #119, May 25th, 2013

The Staller Winery held an open house today. If you don't know where this is, it is located on County A, just past HWY 89, in Walworth County. I drive by that location frequently and have driven by there many times over the years. This particular location was, many years in the past, a dairy farm. Back in 2007 the property was for sale. Of course, it was nothing more than a collection of farm outbuildings and a house at that time. Now those house buildings include a fully-enclosed gazebo and are flanked by rows of grape vines on either side. 

I spoke with the Stallers--the young couple that started the businesses, at their open house. They have an interesting story to tell and it

was refreshing to see a new business thrive against the back drop of the great recession. During the open house, food was available--including these huge blocks of cheese as seen here. The Turtle Creek Chamber Orchestra performed for a couple of hours right in the gazebo. Good times!

Enjoy!!!
