   MoreIn the past several years "green" and "sustainable" have been the buzz words that everyone has been working towards. When I sat down to see what we could do to be more sustainable. I realized that we have been doing many of the things all along! Our founders, Herald and Elsie Woodworth, were applying the concepts of "Sustainability" in the 1930's when they started the Woodworth Farm. Herald was famous for making "farm inventions" like the flat bed truck he rigged up to steer from both the front and back ends so that the truck could be driven from one row of grapes into the very next row. This saved time and fuel by not having to turn the vehicle around at the end of the grape rows. It also allowed a different crop to be planted closer to the grapes as the turn around space was no longer needed. Grandma Elsie tied the grapes in the spring with sisal (twine) because it would decompose over the winter months and not have to be removed from the vines and sent to the landfill. Less
