July 20: Blueberries and Wine Festival at the Tug Hill Estate

The Tug Hill Estate is holding a Blueberries and Wine Festival on Saturday, July 20, from 2 to 8 p.m.

Tug Hill Estate
4051 Yancey Rd
Lowville, NY

The estate’s blueberry u-pick fields will be ripe for picking at the festival. There will be the Estate’s own blueberry wine, spirits and hard cider in the Vintner’s Lounge, as well as a variety of non-alcoholic blueberry beverages.

Katey Bakes will be there with her treats and sweets, and the Tug Hill Estate kitchen will be creating and serving some blueberry-inspired dishes throughout the day. Guests can expect to find menu items like Blueberry Feta Salad with Tug Hill Estate’s Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette or Pulled Pork sandwiches with housemade Blueberry BBQ Sauce. There will also be sample stations throughout the property to try some other blueberry-inspired wares, like local Blueberry Creamed Honey and Blueberry pastries from local bakeries.

Kickstand will be performing from the pergola from 2 to 5 p.m. and Tony ‘Long Toes’ Levesque will perform from 5 to 8 p.m. Terrace and Garden-area seating will be available, or attendees are also invited to bring their own chairs for enjoying music and food on the lawn.

Traditional wine tasting for $10 –payable at the door– with the Estate’s wine experts will be available for those interested inside at the processing building and will be offered throughout the duration of the festival on a first-come, first-served basis.
