Vermont Wine and Harvest Festival

The Southern Vermont Deerfield Valley Chamber of Commerce runs this two-day harvest celebration across the Deerfield Valley at the start of foliage season. Friday evening brings a wine and soup stroll through historic downtown Wilmington, where local chefs compete and shops stay open late. Saturday moves to tented grounds at Mount Snow Resort in West Dover, where Vermont wineries, distilleries, cideries, breweries, cheesemakers and artisans pour and sell. Saturday general admission includes a wine glass and festival tote; dogs are not permitted at Mount Snow.
