- ARTIST OF THE MONTH: Stop in at our Newberry Commons Mall location to see an exhibition of spectacular Photography by Meredith Kaminek. From her studio in Central Pennsylvania to a creek in the woods, Meredith Kaminek has cultivated her career as a professional portrait photographer since 1992. Connecting with people to photograph more than what they look like, but who they are, has always been the true passion parallel to her artistic eye. 

Feeling a similar connection with nature, Meredith has branched out to share her perspective of how everyday life and our natural surroundings are genuine gifts...
...so long as you take the time to look at it that way. 

"...as I found it" is Meredith Kaminek's recently published hard cover book, which is a collection of her photographs of nature untouched, coupled with simple thoughts and inspirations that she has written. Stay tuned for news about a Special Book Signing night at our Tasting Room with Meredith.


- SPECIAL OFFER FOR OUR NEWSLETTER READERS & FACEBOOK FANS: For the entire month of June at both of our locations, buy 1 Raspberry Bliss and get the 2nd bottle of Raspberry Bliss for 10% off.  Just tell our Cashier that you are a Newsletter Reader or Facebook Fan and get your Discount!

Hummingbird Ridge Winery is “the Small Winery with Big Flavor”. Owner Tom Day began his wine odyssey as a teenager, watching his Italian grandfather make wine. When Tom started winning amateur awards for his own wines, he decided to open his own winery. With over 20 years of experience, he opened this microwinery dedicated to making wine in small batches, so that every aspect of the winemaking process could be meticulously taken care of, to craft wines with superior flavor and balance. Tom named the winery after one particular hummingbird that followed him as he first walked the property and that hummingbird’s likeness graces every bottle of Hummingbird Ridge wine. We hope you enjoy your experience at Hummingbird Ridge and please call on any of our staff to assist you. “Experience the Exceptional Flavor and Balance” of Hummingbird Ridge wines!
