DesJarlais Farm and Winery is located in the heart of Sturgis. Our family has owned the 20-acre property since 1938. Our grandfather, Joseph Henry planted concord grapes in the early 40s that are still producing a wine we call legacy red. Today, there are more than 400 grape vines with 10 different varietals along with a small diverse orchard and berries. We are a boutique local winery that produces hand-crafted wine that our local customers will enjoy. Our apiary supplies local raw honey to sell along with other associated products. We also operate a campground for the Sturgis Rally. The folks that have stayed with us have deemed our property as the Sturgis Hideaway. We offer RV sites and some unique cabins. Check our website and Facebook page for more information and current availability of wine tasting and vineyard tours.
