Emissions reduction targets

Botanica Wines has set a long-term target to reduce GHG emissions.

Active

Target

We commit to reducing 2023 Scope 1 & 2 emissions 50% by 2030

We have been working to increase the carbon in our clay soils since 2012. We farm using no-till practices with both our protea flowers and wine grapes. Using mulch, vegan compost, and rotating cover crops has allowed us to forgo fertilizer application now that our carbon % is nearing 2%. Building soil carbon takes patience as it is a slow process and we realized that we needed broader and more immediate goals to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. Change Climate Project Certification holds us accountable each year. Additionally, their expertise in identifying quality carbon credits is valuable for small companies like ours.
