Walnut Ridge Vineyard

|
We live and work here and we produce much of our own food here, not to mention the wine to accompany it.
It is of paramount importance to us to do nothing that will harm the environment, the products we consume or the wine grapes we sell to our winery customers. To help guide us in this mission, we signed up with the Low Input Viticulture and Enology (LIVE) program- http://liveinc.org.
Walnut Ridge Vineyard is certified sustainable by LIVE and has been awarded the Salmon Safe designation since 2005. What does this mean? First, it means we don’t try to dominate nature but rather work with it to maintain an equilibrium that provides room for wildlife, native plants, abundant insect populations and quality wine grapes. When you look at our vineyard, you don’t see a manicured, monoculture landscape. You see a vineyard alive with flowering native plant species, beneficial insects keeping less desirable insects in check, birds and bats, cats and mice. We have planted our vineyard on grafted rootstock.
