Cornell Virtual Viticulture and Enology Extension Meetings - June 2020

Cornell Viticulture and Enology Extension programs invite growers and winemakers to several online informational sessions on vineyard and winery topics.   We are pooling resources to make informal field meetings held by each program into virtual meetings direct to your cell phone or computer via the internet and zoom. 

Each meeting will feature a management topic with faculty and extension panelists making informal presentations followed by a question and answer session.  We intend this to be a conversation, and will address questions submitted in advance, or ‘live’ through the zoom chat bar or directly through the phone or computer app as possible.  Pre-registration is required, but you will only need to register once to attend all sessions.

If you are seeking pesticide recertification credits for NYS, then you need to connect via Zoom app or Zoom software with video and pre-register.
