2026 Trail Event
Honoring our Vets, Pairing with Purpose
Nov 2026 • Nov 7/8, 14/15
Ticket holders visiting each winery, during their self-guided tour, will be delighted by fall/harvest themed food pairings matched with our locally produced wines. A portion of each ticket sold will benefit local veterans.
Sip for a cause. Each ticket you purchase helps support the Veterans Coalition of Pennsylvania (VCOP) — because wine tastes even better when it gives back.
We’re donating a portion of every ticket sold, and each participating winery will also be collecting donations for VCOP: food, clothing, housewares, toiletries, and monetary donations.
Come taste, toast, and make a difference.
Tickets are valid for each participating winery on the trail and for both weekends

Our Charity Partner
Veterans Coalition of Pennsylvania (VCOP)
This year we are proud to partner with the Veterans Coalition of Pennsylvania (VCOP), headquartered in Reading.
VCOP is “a nonprofit dedicated to supporting veterans and their families with respect, dignity, and care. Through food, clothing, housing support, transportation, and community outreach, we work to ensure no veteran is left behind.”
VCOP also runs three transport vans that take veterans to medical appointments and other essential trips. Monetary donations help keep them on the road by covering gas, oil changes, and upkeep.
Give Back
Bring a Donation
Bring a donation with you on your tour. Every participating winery is collecting items for VCOP during both weekends, and VCOP will pick everything up after the event.
Stand Down
Meet VCOP on the Trail
On the first Saturday of the event, VCOP will hold a Stand Down on the trail. Volunteers will be on hand to collect donations and share resources with veterans who stop by.
- Manatawny Creek Winery Douglassville Saturday, Nov 7
