COVID-19 Community Mitigation
Sonoma County Vintners is dedicated to the health and safety of the Sonoma County community. In an effort to support the community, Sonoma County Vintners collaborated with county, state and federal officials to craft a COVID-19 Community Mitigation Best Practices reference document as well as educational flyers. These are available for download below in English and Spanish and will also be highlighted on radio advertising spots and in social media.
Community Counts
While Sonoma County Vintner’s mission is centered on spreading the word around the world about our amazing world-class wines, we are also focused on our community, our neighbors, and working together to continue to make Sonoma County one of the world’s most beautiful locations to live, work and thrive.
Our “Community Connection” initiative is designed to increase communication with our neighbors, develop “Best Practices” education for our wine community, and provide solutions to challenges our County’s success and growth have created.
We believe that working together with our neighbors throughout Sonoma County, we can enrich our county and succeed in sustaining our communities.
Wine Community ‘Best Practices’
Association wide and cultural events are critical to the branding, visibility and sales of Sonoma County wines. In addition, association sponsored wine events have existed in Sonoma County for nearly forty years. These events contribute hundreds of thousands of dollars to our local economy and also make a significant supporting impact to local charitable organizations and causes throughout Sonoma County.
The following are recommended “Winery Event Best Practices” that will assist in event planning, communication, management, execution and promotion. They are also designed to work with and assist our winery neighbors to minimize any potential challenges or problems related to winery / charitable events.
