ROGUE VALLEY FIRES – IMPACT & RELIEF EFFORTS
The fires in Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley have had a devastating impact on local communities, winegrowers and the people who support not only the wine industry, but the regional economy as a whole. These fires decimated the communities of Talent and Phoenix and parts of Ashland and Medford. The full impact of these fires will be felt for years to come. An estimated 2400 structures have been lost and countless businesses and families have been permanently displaced – many of them have little to no means to rebuild.
While the majority of our wineries remain open for tasting or wine pick-up (and we are so grateful for the local outpouring of support), we also recognize that so many of our friends, community members and colleagues are suffering.
Rogue Valley wineries have banded together to provide critical relief through Rogue Valley Wine Country Cares. And we need your help.
