Early Spring 2012 Vine Pruning

In March, Kate and Dave helped us prune all the vines.  Since they are "one-year-old vines," they needed to be pruned way back to just the main trunk and three or four buds.  Because it is so early in the spring (we've had May-like weather for a while) and there is a good possibility we could still have a freeze, we were afraid to trim things down that drastically.  So we left more like 10-15 buds on everything (and sometimes three trunks).  We will prune again later when we know the possibility of frost damage is past.

Vines are pruned and looking good!
