Napa Green Winery Certification is a rigorous, third-party sustainability certification for Napa Valley wineries, covering the entire facility from production to hospitality. It requires meeting standards for water and energy conservation, waste reduction, and climate action, focusing on soil-to-bottle sustainability and social equity.
A whole facility sustainability certification to reduce energy, water and waste and increase social justice & climate action.
Napa Green is a boots on-the-ground sustainability certification program designed specifically for the wine industry. It offers a path to achieving climate action targets while strengthening the resilience of the land, business operations, and the community. The program assures consumers of its rigorous standards through validation of practices by an independent third party audit.
Billed annually, these fees cover a fraction of our expert staff time to facilitate certification and annual desk audits, develop resources, training and education workshops & events, and communicate the climate action leadership of our members.
