Robert Hall Participates in Certified Sustainability in Practice (SIP)
September 22, 2008
Robert Hall Vineyards and Winery has achieved Sustainability in Practice (SIP) tm Certification in the Central Coast Vineyard Team's pilot program and has unanimously passed the Sustainability in Practice(tm) Standards by meeting all of the requirements and completing the available Management Enhancement points. This pilot program requires the participating growers to adhere to a strict protocol to prove their compliance with the robust requirements. The growers are required to complete an audit of their growing practices and working protocol, by a 3rd party independent auditor. Following the final documentation and audit, an independent advisory board, based on the recommendation and reporting of the auditor, grants certification. The independent advisory board is comprised of representatives throughout the ag community including Cal/EPA, UC Cooperative Extension, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo and the CA Association of Resource Conservation Districts, to name a few.
