2011 vineyard meeting series

We will have this year's first vineyard meeting on 4/27/11 at De Vault Vineyards.  I will present seasonal reminder on grape disease management and Tony and/or Tremain will provide viticulture updates.

The address of the vineyard is:

247 Station Lane, Concord VA 24538
http://www.devaultvineyards.com

Directions:  At Intersection of Hwy 29 South and Hwy 460, go east (towards Appomattox) on Hwy 460 for 10 miles.  Turn right onto Hwy 24 West and travel 0.3 miles.  Take second left onto State Rd 741 after 0.2 miles.  Vineyard and winery will be on your right.

For more information about the meeting, please contact Michael Lachance, Nelson County Cooperative Extension (434) 263-4035

Also, Tremain set up a nice web page for the future meetings.  I've also create a link to this page on the right-hand side of this blog.

Season's Greetings!

I hope you and your family have a good holiday season and a Happy (and safe) New Year! Thanks again for your support of our programs. Here are some recent media highlights. 😉 The link will open a new window. AHS AREC promotional video  that highlights some of our activities. The link did not work... It asks you to log in to VT. I will request the IT people to change the setting, but in a meantime, here's the same video. We also appeared in  the Library of Congress project “Winery Workers of Virginia”. One more announcement: I will be moving this blog to a new location ( ext.grapepathology.org ) early next year. I had to make a change due to the email subscription service, which has been terminated.  You do not need to change your bookmark or your email subscription. The URL will be forwarded to a new site and your email subscription has been moved to a new site already.
