Greenvale’s Owners: The Parker Family History

Nancy Parker Wilson's great, great, great uncle started Greenvale in 1858.

He read a book about what farming should be like. He picked this property while sailing on the river.

    

Vineyard is a way of helping them keep the land. Grapes and wine help them keep the farm paying for itself.

Parkers still live in a beautiful old home there.
