Featured Vendor - Lori Perkins of Home Fruit Wine

Home Fruit Wine begins with a peach tree which David planted more than 20 years ago, in honor of his rescue dog Pearl.  In 2011 Mother Nature was good to us and we had more peaches than we could ever eat so we made our first batch of wine.    Well needless to say, I’ll admit, it was not our best.  With help from Uncle Sonny, whom we have named our Blueberry wine in his honor, “Sonny’s Blueberry Sunrise," and lots of trial and error, we have learned the art, and may I add, FUN of Fruit wine making. 

David’s hobby of the fruit trees, which he planted and maintained, started to grow and became the catalyst for our Home Fruit Wine business!  He calls is it his "miniature orchard!"  We now have Blueberries, Raspberries, Rhubarb, many fruit trees and even Kiwi to work with! 

Our Wines are made with fresh succulent fruit and berries giving you a sweet natural taste.  From David’s miniature orchard our fruit and berries are locally grown.   What we don’t have we source from local farmers and friends to use in our collections.  

Home Fruit Wine was established in 2014 and we then opened our retail and tasting store in 2015.   We have 42 different kinds of Fruit wines and Blends.  We invite you to stop in for a tasting at our retail store at 382 South Main Street, Orange, MA and/or you can find us at one of the following locations to stock up for the festivities!
