AMA - Winery/Vineyards, Agriculture, Environmental Issues

[Mason Moreland]

Morning, Bigger Pockets!

I want to try to give back to the community that has helped me so much. If anyone has any questions on investing in the winery/vineyard space, agriculture, or questions about environmental issues, I would LOVE to help you out! Ask me anything ("AMA") you want to know or questions you might have and I'll do my best to answer or connect you with someone who can.

My background: ~8 years professional environmental consultant and wildlife biologist (phase 1/2's, wetland delineation/permitting, oil & gas, etc); ~3 years in the oil and gas industry doing environmental work; partner in standing up one of the biggest wine grape vineyards in Texas by acreage, also currently standing up a high-end "custom crush" winery in the heart of West Texas vineyard country; ~6 years financial modeling/underwriting residential and unique real estate and business opportunities; 8 years total investing in real estate, mostly SFR and small MFR holdings in West Texas and DFW

Hope I can be helpful to you!
