Grape harvest @ Imogen's Farm 30 Jan 2010

The rain stayed away just long enough for us to harvest the grapes on 30 January 2010.  While picking we were pleasantly surprised by a visit from David Nielsen, a photojournalist from The Northern Star.  It was a bumper harvest, but all the grapes were picked and de-stemmed before midday, as we had many enthusiastic volunteers!  While Christine and Douglas treated everyone to a sumptuous lunch, the rain poured down.
