Our own #Dunstonefamily includes: two dogs, Merlot and Rosé, five pretty pigs, Oinky, Petal, Cabernet, Ollie and Whisquita several horses and a host of working ducks that help to keep our orchards clean and pest-free. The keep our dams free from mosquitos but aren’t in the vineyards You may have noticed our logo; it was designed to honour our first farm dog, a wiemaraner named Syrah, who ruled the roost for 9 years!
This festive season, we’re reaching out to all similar minded animal lovers and asking for your kind donations towards our SPCA Wellington Christmas Drive. Items big and small, new or second hand, tasty or otherwise, can be dropped off at The Stone Kitchen on your next visit. To say thank you, we’re offering free wine tasting for all significant donations, so stick around a little longer and enjoy some wine on the verandah at Dunstone. We’re running the drive throughout December, so even if you are planning to go away for a bit, we hope that you’ll have some time to pop in and see us with your gifts.
