History/Lore

The Concord Grape is a classic American grape variety that was developed in 1849 by Ephraim Wales Bull in Concord, Massachusetts. Bull spent years experimenting with different grape varieties, eventually creating the Concord Grape, which quickly gained popularity due to its flavor and hardiness. The Concord Grape was used for making juice, jelly, and jams, as well as wine, becoming a staple in American agriculture. Today, it continues to be a beloved choice for its rich flavor and versatility in the kitchen, adding both beauty and functionality to gardens and landscapes.
