Our Winery

When you sip one of our wines at Native Trails Winery in Lewistown, IL it will conjure up the spirit of the rich Native American history of this land. We are excited to share this unique experience and our special and beautiful location with you!

During your visit, you will have the opportunity to sample one of seven wines made from locally-grown grapes. We offer red and white wines, both sweet and dry. Our winery also showcases homemade antler carvings and native art creations as well as Native American knives that detail the artifacts and history of the people who once lived here. Our picturesque location is able to host family events, wine tastings, tours, and more!

 
 

Our Mission

The Oneota Indians roamed this area from 1300 to 1600 A.D. Evidence from excavated sites indicates that they hunted, gathered, gardened, fished, and farmed. For about a century, they co-existed with the Spoon River Mississippians – even living in the same villages. This same terrain that once gave them their spirit and freedom now enriches our vines!

Our wines are crafted with the Oneota Indians' spirit and freedom in mind. We hope that you enjoy your experience here at Native Trails Winery.

The Owner

In 2006, our owner, Bill, purchased the 110-acre farm, which includes groomed trails that are open for seasonal tours. Our ideal location borders Dickson Mounds State Museum.

Bill grew up on a farm and decided early on that he wanted to devote some of his time to farming. He has a Bachelor's Degree in agricultural science from Western Illinois University, specializing in growing small fruits such as grapes and berries. This education and experience eventually led to his desire to start his own vineyard and ultimately open a winery.
