At Green America, social justice is a key part of what we mean when we say "green." Without social justice, we cannot achieve environmental justice.

The people on the frontlines of environmental movements are often on the frontlines of social justice movements, working towards a shared vision of human and planetary health and safety. Often, these are communities of color, the LGBTQ community, and marginalized communities working hard to bring forth collective justice.

We share their stories to inspire action within your own communities and to work together in creating a more just and equitable society for all people.

America’s first organic and Biodynamic winery

Producing award-winning vegan, gluten free wines with no added sulfites since 1980

We are a third-generation family-owned and operated winery located at the pristine headwaters of the Russian River in Redwood Valley, Mendocino County, California. At Frey Vineyards we combine the best of modern and traditional winemaking methods to showcase distinctive varietal flavors. Through minimal manipulation in the cellar, we allow the wines to express the authentic character of our soils and climate. For over three decades we have been vanguards in crafting wine without added sulfites, a synthetic preservative added to most other wines (even wines made with organically grown grapes!) that can cause adverse allergic reactions in some people.

Our organic and Biodynamic farming methods encourage care for the soil, groundwater, and wildlife, promoting rich biodiversity in the vineyard. Ninety percent of our land is held as unspoiled natural habitat with a diverse mix of native plants and animals. As stewards of the land, we emphasize producing organic and Biodynamic wine of the highest quality while caring for planet and palate alike.
