A certifiable approach to sustainable agriculture that goes beyond organic standards to incorporate criteria for biodiversity, soil health, and accommodation of nature on the farm and in the winemaking practices.
Like sustainable farmers, organic farmers strive to conserve soil & water and use renewable resources. However, organic standards prohibit the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.
Sustainable farming refers to a range of agricultural practices that are not only ecologically sound, but also economically viable and socially responsible.
