THIS EVENT "POPPED-UP" ON DECEMBER 22. DO NOT REGISTER.

 

Faced with increasing costs and a dwindling supply of labor, many growers are considering the transition to mechanical pruning. 

At this tailgate meeting, you will see the process of pruning vines mechanically up close. This is also an opportunity to see and discuss the benefits and limitations of the technology and hear the grower’s first hand experiences with transitioning to mechanical pruning.

THIS IS A SPECIAL “POP-UP” TAILGATE MEETING

Weather and logistical issues make scheduling a specific date for a mechanical pruning demonstration challenging.
 
So instead, this will be a “pop-up” tailgate.
 
How It Works:
  • When you register for this tailgate you are put on the email list.
  • Notice will be approximately two days before the equipment is in the vineyard.
  • You will receive an email letting you know the day and time.

  • If you are a non-member and pay to register, your money will be refunded after the meeting if you were unable to attend.
