📄 Full Show Notes &amp; Episode Bonuses 🌍Better World Weekly Newsletter 🎬Subscribe on YouTube Oregon’s most diverse wine growing region has been 200 million years in the making. Two-thirds of the wine made in Oregon is grown and bottled in a geologically rich area, nourished by a delicate balance of rain and sun: the Willamette Valley. More than 700 wineries call the seemingly magical Willamette Valley home, which stretches 150 miles between Eugene and Portland, loosely following the Willamette River and holding the state capital of Salem. One winery with a particularly rich history in the Willamette is owned and operated by the Brooks family.  Portland native Jimi Brooks lived in the Beaujolais region of France after college to learn the intricate art of winemaking. Upon his return to the states, it was Jimi’s dream to open a winery that represented his own commitments to both land stewardship and excellent wine.  Although Jimi passed in 2004 shortly after establishing Brooks Winery in 1998, the winery serves as his living legacy. The Brooks community banded together in the wake of this tragedy and continues to produce wine in Jimi’s signature style. Jimi’s sister Janie spoke with us on the Social Entrepreneurship &amp; Innovation Podcast about how she led the charge to make Brooks the first winery to become a B Corporation, Certified Biodynamic, and member of 1% For the Planet all in her brother’s honor. In our Episode with Janie, we discuss  The history of Brooks Winery How Janie worked to make Brooks a Certified Biodyanmic Winery, a 1% For the Planet Member, and the first winery to become a B-Corp The relationship between farming, ecology, and delicious wines and why they practice Biodynamic farming Why Oregon is one of the best wine-growing regions in the U.S.  Links from the Episode:    Brooks on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube Brooks Wine Club  Brooks Virtual Wine Tasting American Wine Story  Kiss the Ground and the Kiss the Ground documentary  The Biggest Little Farm    Full Show Notes &amp; Episode Bonuses: https://growensemble.com/best-winery-oregon/ Connect with Grow Ensemble on Social:   YouTube Twitter LinkedIn Instagram

#147 - The Best Winery in Oregon: A Certified B Corp Rooted in Family Tradition & Biodynamic Wine With Janie Brooks Heuck, Managing Director of Brooks Winery (Part I)

Janie Brooks Heuck talks about how she moved from the health care industry to taking over her brother's winery business, the role of her family in her current business, how she has pivoted her business during COVID-19 to make wine tasting more socially distant, and more. "Every time I hear about something that's typical in the industry, I try to go the other direction." - Janie Brooks Heuck
