ABOUT RIVER HOUSE

It all began with a hay rake and an auction. When John’s great grandmother's farm came up for auction in 2016, we decided to explore the land that John hadn’t seen since his childhood and maybe bid on some farming equipment for our hobby farm.

 

The auction did not go quite as planned… we fell in love with the property and, instead of buying the hay rake, we bought the farm! At first, we weren’t sure what to do with the property - but one thing we did know was that we wanted to carry on the tradition of farming like our ancestors. Over time, plans to start a vineyard took shape. 

 

The past 5 years have involved countless hours of hard work and dedication from family, friends, and staff. We could not have made it this far without everyone’s support. We are excited to be starting a new chapter at River House by opening our doors to the public for the first time!
