Bainbridge Vineyards re-opened as a cooperative effort in 2013. Many of our co-owners now have their own farms in Kitsap County. Today, we are still a woman- led business.
Betsey Wittick
Grape grower, Wine Maker, teacher
Betsey holds a Masters degree in Horticulture from Cornell University, and began growing grapes and making wine with the Bentryns in 1989. She utilizes draft horses as part of our whole systems approach in the vineyard. As winemaker and viticulturalist at Bainbridge Vineyards, and as proprietor of small-scale vegetable operation Laughing Crow Farm, Betsey is committed to seeing local food production remain a viable livelihood and important asset to our community.
Stephanie Von Tacky
Co-Owner
Stephanie is our matriarch and in house French speaker! She has studied abroad in France, owned a cheese shop in California, and is a long time Bainbridge community member. You may remember her as one of the chefs from the beginnings of the Streamliner Diner. She can do it all. A woman who loves the earth and hearing about others fascinating experiences, you can find her in the vineyard or the tasting room!
Keyla Beebe + Amy
vineyard leads, assistant wine makers
Pictured here with the 2021 vineyard crew, Keyla and Amy are integral to our “Vine to Glass” ethos. They have personally worked with every single vine and are the go-to team for all things vineyard and winery. They are currently working on several new offerings and can usually be found among the vines or planning new herbal blends. They bring both zen and innovation to the team and if you’re lucky, you’ll be here on a day when their dogs are making an appearance too!
Our co-owners
Include the farmers from Around The Table Farm, Winter Creek Farm, and Full Tilth Farm.
Our Supporters
We could not be more thankful for the community of long time supporters we have at our farm. Much of our success comes from our hard-working seasonal employees, interns, and friends of the vineyard. Notable people include Polly Longworth, Megan Gordinier, Mike Fitzgerald, Cristina McGinnis Widman and Sara Bean.
