From January 1 to April 30, 2024, if you visited all nine participating wineries and breweries on the Warren County Grains & Grapes Trail and obtained three stamps per location, you earned a custom hoodie with the official Grains & Grapes logo printed on the front and the brewery and winery logos on the back.
The 2024 Passport Program is now over. We hope that if you participated, you had a great time. If you missed it, check back for our next promotional program and get in on the fun.

Q: How did the Grains and Grapes Trail Passport Program work?
A: The Passport was available to participants 21 years of age and older, sold for $2 at any of the trail locations. Participants had until April 30, 2024 to obtain stamps at all locations, and until May 15, 2024 to turn in the completed passport to claim a custom hoodie. All hoodies have been delivered to the brewery or winery that registered the winners. If you earned one and haven't received it, please check with the brewery or winery where you presented your completed passport.
Q: What is the Grains and Grapes Trail?
A: Five breweries and four wineries located in Warren County, NJ, have joined together to create a trail that you can follow for good times and great locally made beverages. There are always fun activities at the locations, and each trail partner also promotes neighboring attractions that you can include in your trail adventures.
Q: How much is a passport to participate in the trail? How much per stamp?
A: The passport costs $2. Spend a minimum of $7 to receive each stamp.
Q: So if I spend $21 in a single visit, do I get all three stamps for that location?
A: Sure thing!
Q: Can I visit the breweries and wineries in any order?
A: Start and end your trail adventures wherever it’s convenient for you. Visit in any order you’d like!
Q: What are the operating hours of the breweries and wineries on the trail?
A: Check the websites for each venue. You can find links to each here. (https://explorewarren.org/grains-grapes)
Q: Are there any special events or promotions at the breweries and wineries?
A: Most likely! Visit the Warren County Grains & Grapes Trail on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61...) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/warrencountygrai...) or check the social media pages for each trail location. Like and follow them!
Q: I completed the trail, now what?
A: Bring your completed passport to any of the locations. If your hoodie size is in stock, you’ll go home with it. If not, they’ll take your contact information and size, and order it for you, then alert you when it’s available for pickup.
NOTE: These commemorative hoodies are awarded ONLY to those who complete the trail, and therefore need to be custom ordered once we know who has completed the challenge, and what size they wear. Participating locations only have a few hoodies on hand at any time. If the brewery or winery you vist to get the last stamp on your passport doesn't have your size in stock, let them know your size and it will be ordered for you.
Q: What should I do if I lose my passport?
A: Sorry, purchase a new one and try not to lose it.
Q: What happens if a brewery or winery is closed or unavailable on the day of my visit?
A: Plan ahead! Check out their hours and visit when they are open.
Q: Who should I contact if I have more questions or need assistance during my visit?
A: You can ask the participating breweries and wineries, or contact the Explore Warren County Tourism Partnership at tourism@co.warren.nj.us or toll free at 800-554-8540.
Q: How did the Warren County Grains & Grapes Trail come about?
A: The participating partners banded together with each other and the Explore Warren County Tourism Partnership and sought a grant from the NJ Department of State, Division of Travel and Tourism, VisitNJ.org. We thank that State and the fine folks at NJ Travel and Tourism for their support!
