Turning Winemaking's Trash Into Treasures!

Help us raise money for the Newtown Youth & Family Services

(Danbury, Conn.) Join us for a fundraiser to benefit Newtown Youth & Family Services

What do you do with Pomaceis or the leftover skins, pulp and seeds after wine has been made?

  • Produce grappa, brandy and gin
  • Grind the seeds to extract grape seed oil and mine the skins as a source of cream of tartar
  • Feed supplements for cattle
  • Enhance your compost

Starting on October 10th contact SRW to purchase a bag of crushed grapes for a minimal donation of $10 per bag.
