About the West Coast Smoke Exposure Task Force (WCSETF)

The WCSETF originated from discussions in early 2019 between winegrape growers, winemakers, wine/winegrape industry leaders as well as related industry entities from California, Oregon and Washington. The task force held its first in-person meeting in July 2019. Since that time, the task force has convened educational webinars and produced reference materials to assist growers and winemakers with certain challenges associated with smoke-exposed winegrapes. website


The WCSETF newsletter and website are supported by a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service.
