invite your input for
our upcoming Zoom
meeting with Fritz
Westover on the 23rd,
and also for scheduling
a meeting with Rich
Casale and the NRCS on
Vineyard Storm Damage
Repair & Erosion
Prevention (date TBD but
aiming for mid-Feb.).
Given the constant
deluge over the past few
weeks I think many of us
are interested to hear
what others are
experiencing. So I'd
like to invite some
information sharing (and
if you prefer you can
reply to me privately):</font></div>

have been your
rainfall totals?</b>
For the rainy season so
far (first significant
rain was in Sept.)? For
the month of Dec.?
Since the beginning of
this year? </font><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif">At Muns
Vineyard up on the Loma
Prieta ridge we've had
42.6" for the season,
13.5" since Jan. 1, and
22"+ in December.<br>

<div align="left"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,

you experienced any
storm damage? Erosion?
Flooding? Damage to
structures?</b> If
you have, would you be
interested and willing
to have a meeting at
your property with Rich
Casale as the speaker
(which would give you
his expert consultation,
too)? Funding is
available through the
NRCS to help defray
repair expenses.</font></div>

are your biggest
concerns presently for
your vineyard?</b>
Fritz Westover can
address your issues
during his webinar on
the 23rd. Fritz will
address a range of
issues on preparing for
the 2023 vintage,
including:</font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif">- The effect
of saturated soils on
nutrients and uptake;
vine nutrition<br>
</font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,

management - impact of
high rainfall, etc.,
pruning<br>
</font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,

for heat waves</font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,

anything else you would
