Lake Wildwood Roots & Wings Wine and Home Tour

Each year Roots & Wings puts on a wine tour of interesting homes in Lake Wildwood. This year the homes are along the lakeshore, with Wildwood patio boat owners donating their time and boats to ferry tour goers from home to home. Tickets are sold for the tour with all proceeds going to the Roots & Wings organization to provide funds for local students in need. At each home on the tour, wine sellers and caterers donate their time and goods to enhance enjoyment of tour goers. Tour goers can stay as long as they like at any home on the tour, within the overall tour time span, and are picked up by the same or another boat and carried to the next home on the tour. It's great fun for everyone and an effective way to get ideas for home and garden design.
