Wouldn't it be amazing if we actually could trust things to be taken at word? Carbon Neutral is an important part of taking care of our planet. Perhaps that is the winery's first step as it takes many, many years of switching to organic to be able to label yourself organic. If they have been using pesticide and stop, there are an allotted number of years the land must be pesticide free to be legitimately organic. Perhaps they're just green washing. Great thoughts sparked by the label. I would write to the company to find out more and to let them know people are paying attention, it does matter, and you promote them furthering their footprints by avoiding toxins in their process. I love writing companies. The more people that care and write in, the more they hear the consumer voice. Otherwise they only hear the dollar signs at the checkouts.<br />Thanks for including the video. <br />:)nacherluverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08009387005362252630noreply@blogger.com
