About

Keeping up-to-date with the latest sustainable winegrowing practices can be hard...but it doesn't have to be.

What started as a small grower group’s desire to educate and guide themselves towards sustainable winegrowing practices has become Vineyard Team, an internationally recognized leader in the sustainability movement.

Since 1994, the 501(c)-3 non-profit has served its membership of farmers, winemakers, and industry partners by creating an educational network with the leadership of its staff and board of directors to help growers save resources and money, all while cultivating valuable relationships.

Mission

Vineyard Team will identify and promote the most environmentally safe, viticulturally and economically sustainable farming methods while maintaining or improving the quality and flavor of wine grapes.

The Team will be a model for wine grape growers and will promote the public trust of stewardship for natural resources.


Demonstration Projects

Demonstration projects help growers learn about new management techniques, successfully adopt new practices, and minimize risk.

Staff, technical advisors (University of California Cooperative Extension/university professors), and growers collaborate to implement specific practices and share the results with the winegrowing community.
