Owner at Neal Family Vineyards, Owner at Jack Neal & Son, Regenerative Organic Consultant
Many conversations are happening around different farming methods and what it all means to the environment and products. Sharing my recent article where I take a look into what it means to be Regenerative Organic Certified and exactly what processes are involved in day-to-day farming to hold this certification for our vineyards. This is the way forward. https://lnkd.in/geANwr_D

Mark, great read - as always you are a visionary and put nature over man made quick fixes that don't make vineyards better. you have always been on the right side of history... thank you for helping me and tracy establish our vineyard and teaching us so much.

What about fruit quality? A divided Lyre Trellis is about increased fruit per vine which may not improve fruit quality. A regenative approach to soil has nothing to do with fruit quality.
Fantastic that you are on such a mission to support growers to implement regen practices 👏👏👏
Mark makes some of the best wine in the valley because he truly knows the grape better than most!
