About This Event

Join us to explore how fewer row passes can enhance vineyard health, improve grape quality, and boost sustainability.

We'll begin with a presentation on climate change impacts and actionable strategies. Lisa Francioni (CSWA) will share key research findings on California viticulture and introduce a Climate Action Toolkit to help prioritize resilient practices.

Next, we'll head to the vineyard for an equipment demo, followed by a panel discussion with experienced growers. They'll share practical insights, success stories, and real-world solutions for sustainable, cost-effective vineyard management—reducing compaction, preserving soil integrity, and maximizing efficiency.

 

Speakers:

  • Lisa Francioni, California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance
  • Jeff Lehar, Monterey Pacific
  • Oliver Matthews, Vineyard Professional Services
  • John Pierini, J. Lohr Vineyards
  • Eric Steiger, Coastal Vineyard Care Associates
