Program Objectives

1. To see the vineyard as a whole system.
2. To create and maintain viticulture that is economically viable over time.
3. To maintain the highest level of quality in our fruit production. Integrated production should not require any compromise of our quality standards
4. To implement cultural practices and to solve problems in such a way that we minimize the use of off farm inputs, such as agricultural chemicals and fertilizers, with the goal of protecting the farmer, the environment, and society at large.
5. To encourage farming practices which promote and maintain high biological diversity in the whole vineyard.
6. To encourage responsible stewardship of soil health, fertility, and stability.
