Mel Nass is a former IBM engineer who, along with his wife Phyllis, became co-owners of national grape distributor Venture Vineyards, a 150-acre farm just above Seneca Lake.
Mel and Phyllis originally visited the Finger Lakes on a camping trip and fell in love with the area…the rest is history! They began raising table grapes such as Concords, Niagaras, Wordens, and seedless grapes that grow well in the Finger Lakes. Mel strategically pitched his grapes to local grocers, first giving them sample orders to sell for 100% profit…the gesture worked like a charm and they soon began calling him to order 100s of boxes at a time. On top of local distribution, he shipped the grapes all over the country and they are now carried by massive supermarkets such as Tops, Wegmans, Wal-Mart, Publix, and Winn Dixie.
