Vineyard Services
Midwest Vineyard Services is experienced in planning and designing new vineyards in addition to routine maintenance of existing vineyards.This includes exclusion fencing, custom spraying, trellis construction, and variety selection. We are even able to rescue a vineyard that may need repair or revision.
Sunny Hill Vineyards is our home vineyard nestled in the rolling hills of Western Illinois. Sunny Hill Vineyard is used as a research and development laboratory. We grow 12 varieties on six different trellises covering over 21 acres.
Our crews have consulted and worked in a variety of midwest states building trellis and deer fence. Existing vineyards pose no problem for trellis construction now that we have the Series III King Hitter. The hydraulic side shift on the King Hitter allows the post driver to set the post then retract as it moves past the vines to the next post placement - leaving vines in their natural condition.
Slopes are manageable with the 4-way hydraulic system. Posts can be set straight, even on slopes up to 25 degrees. We can deliver trellis materials to your vineyard site to help speed construction.
Our trellis building crews can build any type of trellis under a wide variety of conditions. If you need consultation to assist in identifying areas that could be improved, or require some hands on assistance, contact us at 217-285-9849 or email us at info@midwestvineyard.com. We will work with you to design a plan that will fit your needs and goals.
