Abstract:

Paul Garrett visited eastern North Carolina to look at the prospects of expanding the amount of vineyards in the area. He proposed 10,000 acres for both scuppernong and mish grapes to supply his company that produced Virginia Dare wines. He believed that expanding the Mother Vineyard in Dare County would become a $1,000,000 industry for eastern Carolinians.
