Press Your Own Grape Juice

You can have a lot of fun pressing your own grape juice for Shabbat.

Introduction

Whether you grow your own grapevine in a garden or a flowerpot, pick your own grapes at a farm, or purchase ripe grapes from a farmer's market or supermarket, the important thing is to enjoy yourself.
