Once it's summer, they will be everywhere.
I am Greek and at the festival at my Greek Orthodox church they serve stuffed grape leaves every year. The festival is in the fall, after the grape leaves are too tough to eat, so all summer long everyone in the church volunteers to pick grape leaves. We freeze them and then thaw them in the fall to use in the festival.
I pick them where they grow wild in the woods near my house. So this summer if you want grape leaves, you should definitely consider picking them and freezing them for the winter.
