Growing Grapes in the Sierra Nevada Foothills has been on the rise for the past decade. The moderate climate that we have in the foothills makes an inviting location for many to consider planting a vineyard. But, growing a vineyard, especially in the foothills represents quite an undertaking and there are many issues that need to be carefully thought out before planting one. If you are interested in learning more about viticulture and the properties behind establishing and maintaining a vineyard in the foothills you will want to purchase our grape packet entitled "Planning a Foothill Vineyard."
