Grapes are one of the most ancient crops known to
humans. They can be eaten fresh as table grapes or
enjoyed in a variety of products such as juice, jelly, raisins,
and the ultimate processed grape product, wine—created
from the controlled fermentation of grape juice. [For
information on home winemaking, refer to Winemaking as
a Hobby (AGRS-049), available through Penn State county
extension offices.] Grapes are a wonderful crop to grow in
the backyard. Many species are native to North America
and are extremely easy to grow, whereas others (primarily
wine grapes) are natives of Europe and can present a true
horticultural challenge to the backyard grower. Because
grapes are vines, the form to which they are trained is
limited only by the grower’s imagination—from arbors
to fences to more standard trellis systems, grapes can be
trained to conform to many shapes and sizes.
