Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation
Carbon Farm Planning & Implementation
Beginning in 2015, the vineyard has become a demonstration site of drought resilient and climate mitigation farming practices. A carbon farm plan was developed for the vineyard. Using COMET-Planner and published regional research, we estimate a potential of 55.62 tons of CO2 equivalent sequestered or mitigated as greenhouse gas emissions per year for the entire property.
