What grand growing venture to pursue next....

Newly relocated to my beautiful Vermont and loving being back home! All moved in and settled on another farm. Will post a pic soon of the view I overlook from this desk every morning and night. Helped turn a small organic garden space in Maryland into a larger, more productive CSA/Farmer's Market enterprise. Received word from my pension plan that I was to start drawing my Social security in September and had to downsize my income accordingly. Moved back here to do that and find myself icthing to get back into the soils of my gardens once again. Interestingly, my landlord and friend is seeking to start a small vinyard from which he can produce his own grapes for the wine he and his family have been making for over 400 years (he's 1st generation Italian/American). Wondering what might transpire and how much work it woukld take has my mind spinning with the possibilities, organic at that, as he uses no additives, chemicals, etcetera and this land is part of a Certified Organic dairy farm (12+years now). Any thoughts , comments pertaining and general insight would be greatly appreciated.
Good growing,
Doc
