A reminder about tomorrow's VASCM meeting, on Cover Crops:

Tomorrow, Wednesday, September 24, 3:00pm at Vine Hill

Our speaker will be Rich Casale of the NRCS talking about Cover Crops. This will
be an in-vineyard walk and talk about cover crops, benefits and choices - so that
you can make your cover crop decisions in time for this winter. Rich has consulted
with Vine Hill on their erosion issues, which the cover crop has helped to address.
And Rachel Ormes, the vineyard manager at Vine Hill, will also talk about her plans
for cover crop this winter.   

As usual, please bring a bottle of wine to share for our wine tasting following 
the meeting. 

Hope you can be there!
