What to Expect at Harvest
Thank you for signing up to join us for Harvest 2026 at Thicket Hill! We’re excited to have you out in the vineyard and appreciate you lending a hand.
HARVEST DETAILS
Thicket Hill Vineyard
17501 Dayton River Rd
Dayton, MN 55327
Saturday, September 26 & Sunday, September 27
9:30 AM – 5:00 PM
We’ll get started around 9:30 AM, but don’t worry if you can’t make it right away. You’re welcome to stop by anytime throughout the day and stay for as long as you’d like.
When you arrive, we’ll get you pointed in the right direction and show you everything you need to know. No harvesting experience is necessary!
WHAT TO BRING
Harvest is outdoors and hands-on, so we recommend:
• Comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting a little dirty
• Closed-toe shoes suitable for walking through the vineyard
• Work or gardening gloves
• Clippers/pruning shears if you have a pair you like to use — we’ll have some available as well, but quantities are limited
• Dress for the weather — layers are always a good idea and sunscreen is always a good choice!
We’ll provide plenty of water throughout the day. Bring snacks if desired, we do not plan to have any food.
There is a restroom on-site.
YOUR HARVEST THANK-YOU
As a thank-you for helping us bring in the 2026 vintage, don’t forget to grab your Harvest T-shirt and choose your free bottle of Thicket Hill wine before you head home.
Harvest is one of our favorite times of the year, and it’s even better when we get to share it with our friends, family, and community.
Come ready to pick some grapes, have some fun, and spend a day on the Hill!
We’ll see you in the vineyard!
