As a Wine Producer

Ensure that you only allow hand harvesting.

This website seeks to promote those Wine Estates and growers that actively pursue an anti-harvester policy. With an increasingly aware consumer market the advantages of hand picking should benefit environmentally conscious producers as much as it benefits the Grape-picking community and conserves the environment.

We also intend to expose those South African Estates that show some responsibility for the ravaging consequences of the ‘dop system’ by providing housing and facilities to their workers, alongside with clinics to deal with the problems surrounding Foetal Alcohol Syndrome.

We need you the wine producer to contact us with this information and help us compile a list for public perusal.

The problem of mechanical harvesters is not limited to South Africa and we also need those international wine producers that insist on hand picking to supply their details and help compile a list of environmentally conscious wine producers.
