In our inaugural episode of Grown in Napa Valley, we cover what all growers are thinking about constantly, the weather; and what resources NVG provides to help work alongside Mother Nature. We chat with three guests: Erick Moldstad from Precision Forecasting, Justin Leigon from Pina Vineyard Management, and have a Glass with a Grower, Mary Maher, Silverado Farming Company & Harlan Estate.
This episode is partially funded by the USDA Risk Management Agency grant. Please complete this two-question survey so that we can continue to receive grant funding for our educational programs. Episode Highlights
"I can attest to the value of these weather alerts…they’re an incredible tool and just such an asset to have in your inbox every morning." – Caleb Mosley
"You have to be a certain kind of crazy to be a farmer…we just like to hang out in the outdoor casino." – Justin Leigon "Every year is different. I go into each vintage with a plan, but it keeps me excited every day." – Justin Leigon "It's so important for everyone – vineyard, cellar, warehouse crews – to understand the collective effort that creates such amazing wine." – Mary Maher "It’s fascinating to see the evolution in vineyards and how each decision, from pruning to harvest, shapes the wine in the bottle." – Mary Maher
