Uncle John's Fruit House Winery

In 1918 our family built the Fruit House as a place to store and package fresh fruit for the wholesale market. We specialized in apples, but also grew peaches, cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. After wholesaling, we used the Fruit House as a packing facility and a retail outlet. Later it became the farm workshop and remained that for the last 20+ years.

Mike Beck (Uncle John's Son), has been making fresh cider for as long as he can remember. He has always believed that the next step in making fresh juice was to turn it into wine! In 2003, with the help of a Federal Value Added Agricultural grant, he and his wife Dede, converted the barn again, and is now the home of Uncle John's Fruit House Winery.

The Winery features a combination of Fruit, and traditional Grape wines, along with Carbonated, Dessert and other specialty wines. In addition to the wines, be sure to try one of the Farmhouse Ciders.
