We continue our celebration of Regenuary with our interview with Nigel Greening, proprietor of Felton Road in Central Otago, New Zealand.  Nigel discusses the role of animals in the vines and the winery’s ecosystem. 

Nigel explains the difference between sheep (which are grazers) versus goats (which are browsers) in managing their wild rose population.  While some believe the best way to restore land is by removing grazing animals, Nigel believes the contrary--their highland cattle has helped restore soil fertility and encourage grass growth. He also shares their experience with helping raise New Zealand endangered native falcons and managing birds, rabbits and other creatures in the vines.
