"To hear something through the grapevine is to learn of something informally and unofficially by means of gossip and rumour. The usual implication is that the information was passed person to person by word of mouth, perhaps in a confidential manner among friends or colleagues."
The phrase became even more popular through the Marvin Gaye song which became a huge hit in 1968 (which is fantastic by the way!) or possibly the version a year before by Gladys Knight and the Pips.
So there you go dear friends! We felt the name "The Grapevine" was very fitting for our site due to the fact that events & activities are usually something you want to share with friends or loved ones. So whenever you read about an event or activity on our site you can now say you heard it-- or read it through "The Grapevine."
