"I'm a big fan of composting. Right now I'm using green waste from nearby cities here in southern California. It's a great rural-urban partnership - I'm helping them reduce waste in the landfills and they spread it for me free so the economics work. The best part is that this gives me uniformity in the vineyard which translates into uniformity in fruit quality."
