Organic Vineyard, Orchard & Nut Grove

The Missouri Ozarks are teaming with wild edibles. For centuries homesteaders in our area have harvested the native black walnuts, wild grapes, mulberries, persimmons, blackberries, & paw paws that cover the hills. Here at Astral Valley we work hard to preserve these natural crops as well as propagating our own organic varieties with which we make homemade wines & other goodies throughout the year.

Reminiscence of an 1800s Town

Astral Valley was originally settled by Dutch-German immigrants in the 1800s. Not long after, the town of Koester, MO was founded, complete with a general store, post office, blacksmith shop, steam mill, livestock barn & school house. Today only a few old buildings & mostly foundations are what remain, but old timers in the area still remember attending barn dances here with their parents back in the day. In order to continue with these traditions we are in the process of refurbishing the old barn into a living relic where barn dances & community gatherings will continue to thrive.

Be sure to bring your play cloths, climbing gear, and a good headlamp so you will be ready for anything! These caves will have you climbing ropes, crawling on all fours, wiggling through tight spaces, and screeching for more.
