Some friends and I will be starting a small hobby vineyard
(approximately 1 acre) next spring. We plan to try a combination of
several Vinifera, hybrids, and American varietals. We'll likely need
small quantities of several different types fungicides and pesticides.

Does anyone know of suppliers that serve the small quantity needs of
hobby vineyard operators? Any leads would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Charles Erwin

You may have issues with certification. It varies from state to state,
but in New york state you need certification for a lot of fungicides.
You can probably buy some of the less toxic stuff from a garden center.
It may not specifically be for grapes though. If you know a grapegrower
see if you can do a deal with them.

I wonder how difficult & time consuming it is to get certified. Also,
where would one go to ge certified?

Whee are you located?

Here in california, non-commercial vineyard does not require permits to
spray. I purhcase products such as Kumulus sulfur and Kaligreen from
Peaceful Valley Farm supplies. Good online store - google them.

We're in Alabama. I'm not sure what regulations would be in place and
I don't even know how to find out. I'll check out Peaceful Valley.
Thanks!

Contact your local Agriculture Extension Office.
They will be able to tell you where to get the fungicides and also the
regulations where you live.
