Specialists
The staff of the Finger Lakes Grape Program is committed to providing grape growers in the Finger Lakes and beyond with cutting edge, research-based information to help them improve the productivity and sustainability of their vineyards and the quality of the fruit that they produce. We work with researchers and extension staff from Cornell and other institutions to create informative extension materials and programs that help to keep grape growing a viable and profitable industry that enhances the communities of the Finger Lakes and upstate New York.

Announcements
B.E.V. NY 2022 Registration is Open!
B.E.V. NY 2022 - March 29-31, 2022
Time to put this year's B.E.V. NY conference on your calendar and get signed up to attend! This year's conference will be held as a fully virtual event again, as we did in 2021. And just like last year, your $100 registration fee allows you to "attend" as much or as little of the conference as you want. The "all you can eat buffet" for business, enology and viticulture information, you might say.
Program, sponsorship and registration information is available at http://www.bevny.org
