Good morning,
Last July, Martin Reyes, MW and I pulled together a collective of community leaders and we have been working incredibly hard to organize an impactful series of events called Napa THRIVES. This unique and action-oriented six-day symposium is spread over three weeks and is designed to accelerate sustainability and climate action in the wine industry. We very much hope you’ll join us, because without you hearing these inspiring ideas, identifying opportunities, and accessing new tools we can’t create the scale and pace of change that we are working so hard to facilitate.
If not here, where? If not now, when? This is a changemaking convening to enable the Napa County wine industry to play an increasingly active role in building social equity, conserving natural resources, reducing and drawing down GHG emissions and creating more resilient vineyards, businesses and communities. Our region and wines capture global attention, meaning our leadership can be an outsized force for change.
The events are organized around the Six Pillars of Sustainable Winegrowing Leadership, and each event day is outlined below. We have assembled:
