The Keel & Curley Winery and Restaurant was started in spring of 2003 in the kitchen of founder and owner, Joe Keel. Keel, a central Florida blueberry farmer, wanted to find something to do with his end of crop blueberries. He decided blueberry wine would be interesting and dabbled with his creation in the family farm house kitchen. He started that spring of 2003 with 10 gallons of blueberry wine. Each batch was improved until it turned into the unique and charming flavors that Keel & Curley Winery is known for today.
Now collectively known as Keel Farms, the winery has grown to include a restaurant, winery, brewery and events venue, all while keeping true to our home-grown roots. Stop by to grab a bite to eat, hop into a tour of our facility, and stay all night at one of our many live events.
THE HIGHLIGHTS
+ The farm is currently open for u-pick strawberries and are anxiously awaiting the blueberry crop to be ready for picking.
