The Early Days

Bo La Motte farm was purchased by the present owner in 1991.
Grapes dated to 1943 were removed from all fields.
The fields were deep plowed and pressure compensated drip irrigation installed.
Thousands of cubic meters of saw dust was added to the clay soil. Later, 1000's of cube's were again blanketed over the rows. Not only did this add the needed organic matter, but it served to keep hold of moisture in the ground, which was delivered via inserted drippers.
