Not the same old



It seems that grape farmers are experimenting with new techniques. Take this Napa Valley grower who stacks red wine grapevines over white vines to provide shade for the lower tier. It seems that white grapes are susceptible to sunburn and the red vines produce shade. It's one way of tackling climate change. 

The next thing you know, growing them on overhead trellises will become commonplace. 

By the way, it has finally cooled down and is raining here today. The earth sighs.
