Hawley Vineyards

Since we began growing our grapes organically, we have noticed a shift in the ecosystem of the vineyard. Wild strawberries grow beneath the vines, lizards scurry around eating any would-be pests, and a family of red shouldered hawks has moved into an old tree above the vineyard; everything is more balanced. John keeps tabs on all the hawks in the area. As a young man he was a falconer and kept many hawks, and it remains a passion of his.
