As a nationally recognized bicentennial farm, Land of Nod Winery is steeped in history. The family owned and operated winery sits on 200 acres of rolling farmland. The first vines were planted in 1994, but the farm has served the local community since before the American Revolution.

This long-standing farm had several generations involved in ironworking of the colonial times. Making cast iron kettles, nails, cannonballs, and swords, the Forbes and Adams families were always producers for the community. Part of the vineyard covers artifacts of this historical time. The tasting room is located in a repurposed barn from the farm.
