Our future sustainability plans include:

• Pursuing Organic, Salmon Safe, Bee Friendly, and Regenerative Organic Certification® for our vineyard

• Using sheep grazing in the vineyard to reduce tractor passes and improve soil health

• Installation of raptor perches and owl and kestrel boxes to encourage natural pest control

• Native plant restoration in non-vineyard areas

• Purchase of an electric tractor with specialty sprayers to minimize sulfur use

• Increased local sourcing of materials

• Increased rainwater collection and water use monitoring
