🐑 @corisonwinery, a long-time advocate for organic practices, used a @napagreen Climate Action Matching Grant to begin grazing sheep at their Kronos Vineyard, an ancient vineyard management technique.

This initiative has helped Corison reduce emissions, improve soil health, and increase vine resilience, leading them to continue and expand the practice in subsequent years.

Thanks to @grgichhillsestate for hosting our Cover Crop Workshop last month in collaboration with @regenerativeviticulture.

We had an incredible time in the vineyard exploring cover crop with @greencoverseed.

Cover crops are essential for managing soil health, erosion control, increasing biodiversity, and a bunch of other benefits including greens for lunch!

Glass bottles heavy weight and energy-intensive production make packaging 40-50% of the wine industry’s carbon footprint, a key sustainability issue. Switching to lighter, alternative packaging drastically cuts shipping weight, emissions, and raw material use.
