    I am a novice to grapes. I live in northwestern MN. When is the best time to start planting? Is it too late this year? What are going to be the best types of grapes to plant in this northern climate?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Tessa. It's probably getting a little to late to plant now. There are some great varieties you could try there. Check out the Minnesota grape growers association
    website at www.mngrapes.org. There is lots of information there and a list of nursery
    sources. I'm a member of the organization and it has some great resources to help you get started.

    Cheers

    Kim
