May Certification Tips

Schedule Your Inspection

Call or email your inspector to select a specific date between June 1 and July 15 – for all inspection types.

We are thrilled with how much SIP Certified has grown - that also means inspectors have more to review. To make sure every applicant meets the deadlines, we ask that you coordinate a specific date with your inspector.

What to Update

Update your certification a little each month to prepare for your June 1 - July 15, 2020 inspection. Login to the database to read each specific Standard as you implement and document them. Update this month:

• 8: Purchasing, Recycling & Waste
• 13: Business Management

*Unless noted, documentation should reflect practices from Dec. 1, 2020 to June/July 2021.

Update Blocks and Acres

Update your blocks and acres so there is an accurate record of what is getting certified for invoicing and wine certification.

*Acres added to certification that are contiguous to existing certified acres and greater than 20% of the currently certified acres, require a Cycle 1 full inspection.
