“Gather grapevines. This can be accomplished through a community vineyard or do what my husband and I have always done.
Find wild grapevine on your woodland property or ask permission to get it from a neighbor’s property. Usually they’re glad someone is willing to rid them of their nuisance.
We’ve pulled down vines that have grown thirty feet up a tree. Some wild grapevine can be gray, pinkish and there’s a reddish brown variety with lots of hair under the outer bark.
The only tools you really need are a good set of clippers and maybe a pair of gloves.
Have an attitude that you’re on an adventure out in nature. After pulling wild grapevine down from a tree or even pulling it from the ground, snip off unwanted stems and leaves till you’re left with a single main stem…”
