The Kentucky Vineyard Society (KVS) exists to promote interest in grape growth and production and to promote grape products grown in Kentucky.  Members of KVS include vineyard owners, winery owners, amateur winemakers, and many others with a general interest in grapes, their products and the expanding grape industry in Kentucky.  

There has been an upsurge in membership with interests in all areas.  We are growing fast and becoming much more active in all facets of this industry.  Kentucky has the potential for becoming a major player in the vineyard and wine industry.

Find out more about us by visiting our History and Vineyards Pages.  Join us!   You may obtain a membership form by visiting our Membership Page.  Just print it off, send it to us, and soon you will be participating in one of the oldest vineyard societies in the nation.

Kentucky Vineyard Society works closely with various departments of the University of Kentucky to provide crop and marketing information to assist and inform vineyard and winery owners.  We also participate in experimentation with old world grape varieties for possible use in Kentucky vineyards.  Further information related to viticulture in Kentucky may be obtained by contacting:
