Linganore Winecellars, Maryland

Many wineries support their local communities. Since wineries have limited funds, they frequently help organizations located in their region. An example is Linganore Winecellars, one of the oldest wineries in Maryland.

Recently, Linganore Winecellars in Mt. Airy, was recognized by Frederick County Commissioners for its community support. Linganore Winecellars had events at their winery that benefited the Red Cross of Frederick County, MS Society of Maryland and United Way of Frederick County. In addition, the winery donated funds to each of these organizations.

Other local non-profit organizations that have received help from Linganore include: Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins, Share Our Strength, Humane Society, North Chesapeake Sheltie Rescue and the Patty Pollatos Fund.

Types of help for non-profits include donations of wine tastings, tickets to festivals and the use of their property for special events.

We have visited Linganore Winecellars several times. An article about the winery is available online.

Enjoy!
