“LIVE takes a whole-farm approach. LIVE growers use good practices and natural materials found on the farm to grow their grapes. When growers go off-farm for fertilizers, for example, or for grape disease treatments, they must choose from a limited list of approved materials. These are chosen for their safety to consumers, workers, and the environment. Many of these materials are also organic approved.” Jason Lett LIVE SupportersThis is an exciting time for the Oregon wine industry. Approximately one quarter of the vineyards in Oregon will become certified sustainable in 2009! To accomplish the lofty goals of the coming years we need your help. Our meteoric growth of the past three years has created the need to expand our administrative infrastructure, and strengthen our internal information systems. These changes have created some fiscal challenges for the LIVE Board. We always hesitate to raise dues and fees on our burgeoning new membership, lest they get discouraged. The LIVE Board has decided to make this appeal for help with keeping our organization in the black. If you choose to donate, but not to pursue LIVE Winery Certification, your support is requested at the levels listed below. We hope that we can count on your help!
