Saturday, August 13 in Hermann, Missouri, Stone Hill Winery will host a Grape Stomp that supports a local charity. The Sheltered Workshop in Hermann is for the physically and mentally challenged.
Participants in the Grape Stomp have the opportunity to stomp 30 pounds of grapes with a two-minute limit. Winners will be based on the amount of juice pressed and style.
Registering for stomping is at 11:00am. The number of registrants is limited so arrive early. In the past some people have arrived at 8:00am. Participants will be in selected age categories: 0-12, 13-19, 20-39, 40-55, and over 55 years of age.
To enter the grounds, fees are $3 for adults and $1.50 for those aged 6-12 years old. The stomping fee is $5.
Visitors will find a food stand and cold wine sales inside a pavilion. Look for bratwurst, hot dogs, fries, ice cream, funnel cakes and more. The Boney Goat Band will play Bluegrass music for everyone’s enjoyment.
Enjoy a watching or stomping at a grape stomp event and know that you are supporting a Sheltered Workshop for the mentally and physically challenged.
