Independent Grape Growers - Paso Robles Area

The Heart of Paso Robles Beats in Every Vineyard

Here Tradition Grows as Strong as the Vines!

Before Paso Robles became known for its wines it was a region of small family vineyards cared for by people who trusted the land.

IGGPRA brings together local growers and friends who keep that spirit alive through collective wisdom and fair opportunity.

We Are The Independent Grape Growers of the Paso Robles Area (IGGPRA)

Paso Robles is a place shaped by people who know the soil. Every season brings new work and new rewards. The Independent Grape Growers of the Paso Robles Area began in 2000 with one clear goal of helping local vineyard owners succeed and stay connected.

The vineyards here are not owned by big corporations. They belong to families and growers who deeply value what they grow. These small farmers give Paso Robles wine its true character.

Running a vineyard takes dedication. Weather, labor, and market changes can make every year different. Many growers face those challenges alone, but IGGPRA changes that. We bring them together so they have the tools and the network to keep going strong.

Our members include more than 130 growers, associates, and supporters who share one vision: we want to see Paso Robles thrive through cooperation and shared knowledge. Together we promote the quality of local grapes and protect the independent spirit of this region.

The Power Behind Paso Robles’ Independent Growers

Before IGGPRA came to life, local vineyard owners were part of a larger group that mainly served the big wineries. The small producers were often left without real support or a clear voice. They needed a place where their challenges mattered and their work was valued.

That need gave rise to IGGPRA. The founders built it to give small independent growers the strength to stand on their own and succeed in a competitive market. That same mission still drives us today.

We help local growers build stronger connections, gain knowledge, and get fair value for the grapes they produce. IGGPRA is where small vineyards find opportunity and support within a trusted network.
