Hello Dear Growers!
I hope you have all had a good week so far.
We are inching toward spring (finally), so I would like to draw your attention to a few events coming up that would be useful to attend.
1. Getting Into the Weeds-
Each of these hour-long sessions focuses on Cost of Production in different operational settings.
I would like to draw your attention to the upcoming session on March 18.
Yvonne Schoening of Jost Vineyards and Winery will be part of a panel discussing her experiences implementing systems to track activities and expenses, as well as the processes and tools she uses in her vineyard operations.
