During 2018-2022, I worked with NatureServe, the U.S. Botanic Garden, and the USDA ARS National Germplasm Resources Laboratory to put together a workshop on the Conservation of the Native Grapes of North America held at Oak Spring Garden Foundation in Upperville, Va.
To learn more about the workshop and why the native grapes of North America are important for the future of wine, watch this youtube video of the talk I did for the Loudoun County Public Library.
