Hats off to you for caring about how your grapes are farmed! You have several options, no matter where you live in North America. If you are able to travel on short notice and only need a small amount of grapes, we can certainly match you up with a farmer during harvest and you can pick your own grapes! If you are unable to travel and/or want a larger amount of grapes, we are happy to put you in touch with a packing company who can ship sustainable grapes to you. There are other options available for getting unfermented grape must shipped as well.
Lodi is about two hours east of San Francisco and 45 minutes south of Sacramento, in the San Joaquin Valley. Thinking about a visit? Check out lodiwine.com for more information. Lodi is the proud winner of the 2015 Wine Enthusiast WINE REGION OF THE YEAR Award. The LODI RULES program originated in and is headquartered in Lodi but has expanded world-wide.
The “RULES” are a set of over 150 farming standard practices which help farmers manage their vineyards sustainably. The "RULES" are divided into six categories: ecosystem management, water management, soil management, pest management, business management, and human resources. For a full list of these practices, click HERE.
Certified organic farming follows a set of practices related to the environment. Certified sustainable farming includes practices related to the environment, the people, and the business.
For those interested in digging deeper into sustainable winegrowing, we offer LODI RULES vineyard tours and wine tastings. Contact stephanie@lodiwine.com for more information or to schedule a visit.
