2018 Grape grower roadshow - A time to get the latest information and have your say.

WGCSA is hitting the road in April and May to talk to growers across South Australia. We want to hear first hand what is important to you and how we, your grower-owned organisation, can do even more to help you.

Our goals are to:
  • Assist SA Growers to be the best, most respected and professional Wine Grape Growers in Australia.
  • Support Growers to navigate the legislation that affects their business.
  • Be a trusted and reliable point of contact for all SA Wine Grape Growers.
  • Strive to consistently make SA Wine Grapes the most highly sought after grapes in the country. 
  • Inform Growers on best practices and threats to success (record keeping, pest and disease, WHS, risk assessments).
  • Advocate for and win support for Wine Grape Growers through strong relationships with Government.
