Waconia’s vintners, brewers and distiller are entrepreneurial artisans building their reputations on the merits of their award-winning products. Using locally-grown produce, they bottle their creations with great care and pride.
Come out and meet the makers! The growing and bottling seasons are packed with events; concerts, fine dining, food trucks, bocce ball, cigar rolling, llama visits and orchestras.
Visit their websites for the most up-to-date events and tours.
Check the websites of the places you plan to visit. Hours and event listings vary widely. The wineries often have multiple public events throughout the season that you won’t want to miss.
If you are wine tasting or plan to visit a tap room, hire a car or have a designated driver. Those little sips add up!
Get to know your host! The person behind the bar may be a brew master, entrepreneur, sommelier or artisan (possibly all four) who loves to share their stories and experience.
If you’re planning to bring your kids with you to experience the vineyards, farms, or orchards, double check websites to see what age-appropriate events are happening for them to enjoy.
