Many gallons of grapes picked; still more on the vine.

Picked scuppernongs

These are scuppernongs, a variety of muscadine, Vitis rotundifloia.

They came from the late Barney Ray’s arbor; now they grow on ours.

Many wild ones grow in the woods, but mostly the critters get them.

These we’ve let grow up in pine and sweetgum trees on the arbor, so most land-bound animals can’t get to them.
