Friends of the Grapegrowers (FOG)

Friends of the Grapegrowers is the community side of the Napa Valley Grapegrowers, created to bring our neighbors closer to the people and places that make Napa Valley thrive.

Right now, FOG connects the community through our FOG Newsletter, the Napa Farmers' Market, and the annual Afternoon in the Vineyards event in April, offering stories and experiences that celebrate local grape growing and sustainable farming. In the seasons ahead, we look forward to expanding FOG with more vineyard tours, hands-on learning opportunities, and partnerships that deepen our shared connection to the land.

Whether you’re a wine enthusiast, a lifelong local, or simply curious about life among the vines, FOG invites you to see Napa Valley through the eyes of the growers who care for it every day.
