🚜 Thank you to everyone who joined us for Technology Field Day!

One of the best parts of the day was seeing growers, ag technology companies, and industry professionals all in one place—sharing ideas, asking questions, and exploring solutions together.

Scott Quilty of Jackson Family Wines shared:
💬 "Having so many equipment and technology providers in one location made it easy to compare solutions, ask questions, and have meaningful conversations."

A special shoutout to Jeff Lehar (Monterey Pacific), whose electric vehicle field days inspired this event, and to Monterey Pacific and Steve McIntyre for hosting us at St. Philippe Vineyard.

We’ve heard great feedback from both growers and exhibitors and would love to hear from you too.
➡️ What was your biggest takeaway from the day?

Did you know nearly 98% of Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholarship recipients are first-generation college students? 🎓

That means many are navigating college applications, financial aid, and the coursework once they're there without having a family member who’s done it before—all while working toward incredible goals.

Karol is one of those students. As she decides between nursing and dental hygiene, she’s gaining firsthand experience in medical offices and discovering how much she values connecting with and caring for patients. 💙

The Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholarship exists to help students like Karol pursue higher education, meaningful careers, and new opportunities.

✨ You may remember Lizbeth, an aspiring nurse who stayed committed to her goal despite a few bumps along the way.

Now she’s doing the work she worked so hard for, caring for patients during clinical rotations.

This semester she gained experience in labor and delivery, postpartum care, and the NICU. What once felt intimidating became a breakthrough when a nurse told her she has the instincts and focus to succeed in such a demanding unit.

She’s also excelling academically, earning two perfect exam scores while balancing clinicals, classes, and a part-time job.

Lizbeth is right where she’s meant to be. 💙
