As the sun sets on a beautiful week in Napa Valley, we are soaking up all the incredible harvest energy happening right now and sending good vibes to our Napa Green wineries and amazing harvest teams! Enjoy this incredible capture of Champion Winery @frankfamilyvineyards bringing in a night harvest of Carneros Chardonnay. Here’s to the best time of the year! 🍇

Climate action is imperative. Napa Green is here to be your partner in creating more sustainable and regenerative business and farming practices.

No matter where you’re at in your sustainably journey, there is a next step we can help you take.

Since Anna Brittain has taken the helm, we have completely redesigned our Vineyard Program, grown our team and increased our reach. If you’re not yet Napa Green Certified or you’d like to explore our Vineyard Certification or Gold Level, reach out to megan@napagreen.org today to begin the process, where we help you every step of the way.

Cheers to Napa Green Champion @opusonewinery! Curious what all those signs represent? Read on..

Napa Green is the leading sustainability certification for Napa Valley wineries and vineyards.

It requires 120+ detailed measures to achieve both our Winery or Vineyard Certification. These measures are examples of meaningful action being taken in the six pillars of sustainable wine growing, which are:

⁃ Water Management
⁃ Waste Reduction
⁃ Energy Efficiency
⁃ Proactive Farming
⁃ Social Equity
⁃ Climate Action

Napa Green helps wineries identify impactful actions that they can take for our community. We see that demonstrated here by the signs hanging in front of champion winery, @opusonewinery, which is both vineyard and winery certified, herbicide free and using MCE Deep Green, which provides renewable energy for the facility.

Reach out to to Team Green to expand on your sustainability practices. No matter what level you are at, think of us as an extension to your team ready to help out in this important work!

Congratulations to @vsattui on their Napa Green Vineyard Certification!

The new Napa Green Vineyard Program is the first sustainable winegrowing certification to focus specifically on climate action, regenerative farming, and social equity, justice and inclusion.

Napa Green Vineyard certification provides a pathway for growers to improve soil health, become carbon neutral to negative within six to nine years, and increase the resilience of vineyards, businesses, and our community.

Reach out to Team Green to learn more about getting Vineyard Certified.

We enjoyed seeing everyone in person last Sunday at the event at @inglenook1879 at the @repmikethompson summer dinner focused on climate action and the Inflation Reduction Act with @speakerpelosi.

Getting out into the community to have climate action focused conversations and hearing great questions from all has been a great experience!

Come say hello at the Napa Green table at Inglenoo

Come say hello at the Napa Green table at Inglenook this Sunday, August 6th at the Annual Summer Dinner hosted by Congressman Mike Thompson.

🎉 Napa Green GIVEAWAY Day! 🎉

We’re very excited to partner with one of our Napa Green & Napa RISE Sponsor’s @vinarmour to giveaway one Vinarmour wine carrier! This is our first ever giveaway and we’re stoked!

What to do:

🍷: Follow @napagreen & @vinarmour
🍷: Like this reel and comment below by tagging a friend who would love a Vinarmour valued at $300!!
🍷: Share this post in your stories for two extra entries!

Vinarmour wine carriers last for many years, if not decades eliminating the need to continually buy other carriers that become waste. They are made in the U.S. out of nature’s most durable materials which allows them to offer a lifetime guarantee—less chance it will end up in a landfill. They cut down on carbon emissions by manufacturing and distributing in the U.S.

Vinarmour keeps your wine chilled in transit far better than neoprene. Style, functionality & sustainability!

Enter now, good luck everyone! 🍷

- The facility has a current operating permit
- The facility is in compliance with the current discharge and reporting requirements.

Applications for continuation under Napa County’s Winery Waste Discharge Program must be submitted by August 1, 2023.
