Let's be honest...our members have probably made every mistake imaginable when it comes to planting and growing vines. You can botch it yourself or you can learn from those who have been there before.

The members of the NBGGA have more or less invented this industry in our province. We didn't have the luxury of asking our neighbours how to do it, because it had never been done before.

You'll find some insider knowledge to the right that may be helpful if you're going to plant some vines and keep them healthy.
