The event will take place on Saturday, November 15th.Admission to the Harvest Festival is free with a donation of non-perishable food items or cash. All admission proceeds will directly benefit Feeding Champlain Valley, ensuring immediate and crucial support for those in need.

Guests can also learn about and sample some of Shelburne Vineyard's most popular wines with esteemed founder, Ken Albert, in the Tasting Room. The market and tastings will run until 5 PM, followed by an enchanting Latin Jazz Concert in Winery Square (aka the tank and barrel room) at 6 PM.
