The 2020 vintage is upon us, and the year has begun with some 
challenges! Technology can help us get together virtually, and we have 
arranged a Zoom webinar exclusively for our group with Fritz Westover of 
Virtual Viticulture Academy <http://www.virtualviticultureacademy.com>.  
Fritz was previously program director for the Vineyard Team on the 
Central Coast and now is a vineyard consultant out of Texas, with a 
national reach through his web-based programs. This webinar will address

can manage cropload especially this year with the anticipated reduced 
demand for winegrapes.
