Truro Vineyards

Built in 1813, the vineyard's Federal house-now home to our offices and gift shop-was first owned by John and Hannah Hughes, and later occupied by their granddaughter Amelia and her husband Michael Rich. The Riches cultivated the estate into a prosperous farm selling grain, milk, and coal. In 1930 artist Edward Hopper painted Rich's House and returned a year later to paint Rich's Barn . During the 1940's Elton and Margaret Rich produced magnificent cantaloupes grown in the estate's warm, well drained sandy soil. Later, this same soil and site would prove to be a perfect spot for growing grapes. A working farm for over 200 years, the Truro Vineyards estate is rich in history and vision.
