Charitable Giving
One definition of the word “charitable” is “full of love for and goodwill toward others”
-Merriam Webster
We try to live our lives and run our business that way, and want to do good in our world whenever possible.
Fruit Donations to AHT Mission Center Food Pantries
We have donated (and continue to donate) thousands of pounds of fruit to our community and neighbors in need of fresh food. We matched 200% of our fruit CSA share purchases in 2021, 2022, and 2023 - for every share you purchased, we gave at least two to the pantry.
Thank you for helping us to help our local pantries to ensure there’s fresh food for all.
Fruit donations to Community Center of Northern Westchester
We donated over 2,000 pounds of fresh fruit to the Community Center of Northern Westchester as part of our 2022 and 2023 Westchester CSAs.
Every year we donate wine, gift cards, and sponsorships to some of our favorite schools, groups, events, and organizations, including Marlboro Elementary & Middle Schools, West Patent Elementary School, CoveCare Center, Katonah Elementary School, Marlboro Youth Baseball & Softball, NorthStar Naturals Baseball, Arc Mid-Hudson, and too many others to list. We love being a part of this community.

Fundraiser for LGBTQ+ Youth
Not just for June - we wear our shirts year-round to mark ourselves as a safe place. Please also wear your rainbows as a reminder to yourself to speak up, advocate, and love; and to encourage others to do the same.
As always, all profits from the sale of Quartz Rock Pride gear and the pride rainbow tastings goes to GLSEN Mid-Hudson who is out there doing the real, day-to-day work for kids and teens in our communities.
So far we've donated over $3,000!
THANK YOU for all of your generosity!
Visit the link below to learn more about GLSEN Mid-Hudson and their work to make schools safe, affirming, supportive places for LGBTQ+ youth. https://www.glsen.org/
We hope you wear your rainbow shirt with pride and that every time you drink from your cup you're reminded to speak up for and show your love to the LGBTQ+ kids and teens in your life.

Fundraiser for Fearless Hudson Valley
From 5/25/22 through 9/30/22, $1 from each sold bottle of our top sellers - Seyval Blanc, Rose of Chambourcin, and Cabernet Franc 2019, was donated to Fearless Hudson Valley, which supports children who have been victims of violence
Memorial Day Weekend Donation
We are donating hard apple and pear cider sales to A Soldier’s Child Foundation.
$2 from every bottle of cider purchased during Memorial Day week and $2 from every cider tasting purchased at the winery over the long weekend. Our ciders include 3 dry - Perry 2020, Proprietor’s Reserve 2019, and Hard Cider 2020; and our sweet Heavens Ice Cider 2020. Cider sales raised $44, which we rounded up to $100 to donate.
This organization provides birthday celebrations for children who have lost a parent in active duty (or from physical or emotional injuries sustained from active duty), every year up to 18-years-old; summer camp experience every year, and leadership development and scholarships for the older kids.
From the Foundation: “As citizens of the United States of America, it is our objective to communicate through ASC to the children left behind that the memory of their parent will not fade away. We want them to know that there are many Americans who are forever grateful for their parent’s sacrifice… We cannot substitute the bond and love of the parent that is forever gone, but with your help we can show them that we really do care.”
Valentine’s Day Love Fundraiser
We donated $2 from every bottle sold of our Valentine’s Day wine, Stood Up, to Family Services NY.
Thank you for buying your Stood Up bottles and contributing to our fundraiser! Together we raised $132, and with our match we were able to donate $264 to Family Services NY to help victims of domestic violence.
This Hudson Valley organization supports and advocates for victims of domestic violence. May all of your love and relationships be SAFE

Fundraiser for Veteran Housing
THANK YOU! Together we raised $500 for The National Coalition for Homeless Veterans
We sold 236 of the qualifying bottles, and then matched 100% and rounded up to $500; donated on 11/12/21.
Over 40,000 USA military veterans are homeless on any given night, and over the course of a year about 80,000 veterans will experience homelessness for some period of time.
40,000 truly brave people, who sacrificed themselves and their families for all of us, have nowhere safe to sleep tonight.
NCHV helps veterans by working with local organizations to ensure that veterans have a home; and also that they are able to get nutritious meals, physical health care, mental health counseling, substance abuse care, personal development, job training, and job placement assistance.
From September 21, 2021 through Veterans Day, we donated $1 from every bottle of Rosé (Red), Quince Wine (White), and Valvin Muscat Sweet (Blue) sold.
NOTE: As of 10/4/21, we sold out of Valvin Muscat Sweet! So from 10/4/21 through Veterans Day, the (Blue) fundraising wine was Vidal Blanc Sweet.
Thank you for being a part of our fundraiser and for helping our country’s veterans.
