We are banking some sweat equity, or should I say "wind" equity, regarding our latest fundraising effort. Very simply put, one uses the orange grapefork to cut the vine, to fill the lug, to send to the winery, to squish the grapes, to make the wine. And in return for our harvesting escapades, we raised money for our Common Hope efforts. WHAT A BLAST. The sun was shining, the laughs were abundant and the wind clocked in just below typhoon strength. It was a great day, indeed.

(Jodi) Fall Harvest Cannon River Winery
Friday, Oct. 7 was a warm, sunny but extremely windy day. We couldn't have asked for a better day. We were dressed ready to work, make new friends and filled our bins... all for an amazing cause.
There were rows and rows of grapevines full to the brim with grapes. There were 22 harvestors with three hours of work ahead.
Jason Sawyer, Vision Team member, ensured not a single grape remained on the vine.
We were a force out in the vineyard! Thanks everyone for your participation.
