In the world of winemaking, Megan Bell's Margins stands out not just for its exquisite natural wines but for the journey of passion, perseverance, and community building that brought it to where it is today. Megan, a one-woman powerhouse, has faced unforeseen challenges in the past year, including a prolonged permitting process for their tasting room, impacting the financial stability of Margins.

Megan's mission goes beyond crafting exceptional wines. Margins is dedicated to making affordable natural wines with transparency, supporting organic farming, and creating opportunities in wine production for underrepresented individuals. With only 4% of California wineries owned by women, Megan's story is an inspiring beacon in the industry.

Having started Margins with a humble $10K Kickstarter campaign, Megan's journey reflects her scrappy determination. Facing grape sourcing challenges, she transformed conventional vineyards into organic havens through persuasion and a commitment to regenerative farming practices.

Despite facing setbacks, Margins experienced significant growth, securing distribution in multiple states and earning accolades from prestigious publications. Megan's vision extended to a community-focused tasting room, the "wine cubby," which opened its doors in December 2023, offering a unique and collaborative space.

Now, Megan Bell needs the support of the Raisin community and beyond to bridge the financial gap and ensure the continued success of her winemaking venture. Every donation, regardless of size, contributes to the preservation of Margins and its impactful mission.

Megan's story is not just about wine; it's about resilience, innovation, and the power of community. Join hands with Megan Bell and be a part of the Margins journey—a journey that goes beyond the vineyards and bottles, embracing the spirit of passion and community in every sip.
