COVID-19 shelved Wally Wine Fest this spring, but the popular annual event at The Waterfront at Silver Birches makes an eagerly anticipated return November 20-22.

We\u2019ve made some alterations to allow for social distancing but retained the spirit and caliber that makes Wally Wine Fest unique.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
