style="color: black;">The 2020 harvest is only a few
weeks away now. And we are fortunate to be able to
feature a meeting/discussion tomorrow on Regenerative
Viticulture with one of its pioneers: Kelly Mulville of
Paicines Ranch in Hollister. <br>
</span></font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="color:
black;">Regenerative agriculture/viticulture goes beyond
replenishing to actually, as its name suggests,
regenerating and adding to the ecosystem, especially in
regards to the soil. This webinar will address how
regenerative viticulture is practiced in the 25-acre
vineyard at Paicines Ranch as well as general vineyard
practices, the focus on soil health, mimicking ecosystem
functions with grazing animals, and design principles
for increasing both profitability and ease of
management. Additionally, we will discuss how to
incorporate (some of) these practices in your vineyard,
and talk about post-harvest practices to prepare your
vineyard for winter dormancy and next year's healthy
growth. <br>
</span></font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span
style="color: black;">See more about Paicines Ranch and
Regenerative Agriculture below. </span><span
style="font-size: 12pt;">Kelly Mulville is a Certified
Educator with Holistic Management International (HMI),
and also a UC Santa Cruz Farm and Garden graduate. </span><span
style="color: black;"></span></font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span
style="color: black;">And, we will have the opportunity
to touch bases before harvest, share updates about our
own vineyards, ask questions, and enjoy each other's
company (albeit on Zoom). </span></font><br>

<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span
style="color: black; background: white none repeat
scroll 0% 0%;">What if it were possible to design a
vineyard that required very few inputs or human labor,
produced good yields of high quality grapes, produced
animal protein, improved soil health, sequestered
carbon, increased diversi</span>ty, and made a good
financial return? This was the vision presented by
holistic management educator and viticulturist, Kelly
Mulville, at an EcoFarm presentation in January, 2013. His
presentation was based on a trial that he had done in
California between 2008 and 2010.</font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font><br>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span
style="color: black; background: white none repeat
scroll 0% 0%;">Kelly joined the Paicines Ranch team in
early 2014 and installed the vineyard, including soil
testing, a light compost application, higher stock
density grazing by sheep and cattle, the planting of
cover crops, installation of irrigation, and some
leveling and ripping on the 25 acre site. The ground
will not be tilled again during the life of the
vineyard. </span></font><br>

Paicines Ranch</b></font></div>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> <i>Paicines
Ranch is a historic 7,600-acre ranch located in central
California in San Benito County. Using regenerative
agricultural practices, the ranch team manages this
diverse landscape in partnership with nature and
livestock to build healthy soil, increase biodiversity,
and create abundance. All of their row crop and pasture
land is certified organic and managed using the
principles of Holistic Management—a value-based
decision-making framework that integrates social,
economic, and environmental considerations in all
aspects of planning. </i><i>The ranch currently produces
100% grass-fed-and-finished lamb and beef and pastured
pork and turkey. They also grow organic grain, as well
as organic grapes in their polyculture vineyard that is
designed to be managed by sheep. Over the years,
Paicines Ranch has become a renowned destination for
learning about regenerative agriculture through their
programs and educational workshops while also hosting
weddings, retreats, and events. <br>
