The idea is to train interns in: 1) What Happens Throughout a WA Growing Season\, 2) Pest and Disease Scouting\, 3) Cold Damage and Yield Estimation\, 4) Nutrient Disorder Identification and Understanding Fertilizers\, and 5) General Internship Planning and Organization. Participants will have both in-class and in-vineyard experiences\, and will also begin to develop a resource guide they can reference throughout their internship and beyond. \n\n\n\nTarget Audience\n\n\n\nIndividuals classified as “interns” in a Washington State Viticulture industry-related field (vineyard management\, crop consulting\, etc). \n\n\n\nInterns are typically early-career individuals\, working in a mentored position for a professional or a company. Most interns are often students enrolled in formal post-secondary education in viticulture or a related field. This workshop does assume a basic level of knowledge / understanding of horticulture / viticulture / farming. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\nAfter participating in this boot camp\, interns should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the timing of major viticulture activities in Washington State vineyards.\n\n\n\nIdentify major pests and diseases in Washington Viticulture\, and how to best scout and sample for them.\n\n\n\nIdentify cold damage\, and understand how and when to best estimate yield in vineyards.\n\n\n\nDistinguish between most major nutrient deficiencies\, read a soil and tissue test report\, and understand basic fertilizer calculations.\n\n\n\nEffectively plan out their internship reports\, and learn how to be proactive in engaging their internship mentors.\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nRegistration is limited to 25 people\, with preference given to those completing an internship at a Washington\, Oregon\, or Idaho viticulture-related business. Please see the list of topics in the agenda below for a better understanding of the day’s events.\n\n\n\n\nRegistration URL: Registration opens March 9\, 2026 \n\n\n\nRegistration Fee: TBA \n\n\n\nPre-registration is required\, and there is an attendance cap to facilitate participant engagement. Registration will close on May 8\, 2026. \n\n\n\nThe fees for this workshop cover all workshop handouts\, and printed extension publications. \n\n\n\nLunch and Snacks have been generously sponsored by Wilbur Ellis. \n\n\n\nAnticipated Agenda – Friday\, May 15\, 2026Morning:8:00 – Welcome8:15 – Round Table Introduction8:30 – Module 1 – A Viticulture Year in Review9:00 – Module 2 – Pest and Disease Scouting – Classroom9:45 – Break10:00 – Module 2 – Continued10:45 – Transition to Field11:00 – Module 2 – Pest and Disease Scouting Activity – Vineyard12:00 – Transition to Classroom / LunchAfternoon:1:00 – Module 3 – Cold Damage Assessment and Yield Estimation – Classroom1:30 – Transition to Field1:45 – Module 3 – Yield Estimation Activity – Vineyard2:15 – Return to Classroom / break2:45 – Module 4 – Vine Nutrition and Nutrient Disorders – Classroom3:15 – Module 4 – Interpreting Soil and Tissue Tests – Activity4:15 – Module 5 – Professional Development and Optimizing Your Internship Experience – Classroom4:45 Session Wrap-up \n\n\n\nAnyone attending this program who requires auxiliary aids or services\, please contact Michelle Moyer at 509-786-9234 or michelle.moyer@wsu.edu.
