VINEYARD FRIENDS X CONSERV EARTH
FRIENDS OF THE PANGOLIN
At Vineyard Friends, we’ve always believed that great wine starts with a deep respect for nature. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Conserv Earth’s Project Pangolin, an initiative dedicated to protecting one of the planet’s most unique and threatened creatures—the pangolin.

Why Pangolins?
Pangolins are more than just fascinating, scaly mammals— they’re vital to the health of our ecosystems. Sadly, they’re also the world’s most trafficked animals, facing threats like poaching, habitat loss, and even accidental harm from electric fencing. These gentle creatures play a crucial role in controlling insect populations, but their slow reproductive rates and solitary nature make them especially vulnerable.
That’s where Project Pangolin comes in. Their mission is to protect pangolins by creating innovative solutions, like specialized fence barriers, to prevent these animals from coming into contact with harmful electric fencing. It’s a cause that aligns perfectly with our values, and we’re proud to support their efforts.

A Partnership Rooted
in Nature
At Vineyard Friends, we’ve always operated with a simple philosophy: to produce wines “side by side with nature.” For us, that means more than just sustainable winemaking—it means protecting every creature, big and small, that shares the land with us. From the tiniest insects to the elusive pangolin, we believe every living being has a role to play in maintaining the delicate balance of our ecosystems.
As Dico Du Toit of Vineyard Friends puts it,
As Dico Du Toit of Vineyard Friends puts it,
We consider all the creatures that inhabit our vineyards to be our friends, and that friendship
comes with a responsibility to protect their homes. Partnering with Project Pangolin is a natural extension of
our commitment to nature. Just as we care for the earth to craft exceptional wines, we must also care
for the ecosystems that make it all possible.
Vineyard Friends Wine is better
What makes Vineyard Friends wine better? It’s simple: we make it better. Our wines are crafted
sustainably, with the well-being of the animals who call our vineyards home at the heart of
everything we do. When you choose Vineyard Friends, you’re not just enjoying a delicious glass

How You Can Help
We’re excited to support Project Pangolin’s ongoing
initiatives, but we can’t do it alone. Together, we can raise
awareness about the importance of pangolin conservation
and inspire others to take action.
