Robledo Family Winery will be lit up with luminarias to support Vineyard Workers Services and honor the people who work Sonoma Valley’s vineyards on Dec. 18. From Dec. 11 through 18, Robledo will donate part of their wine sales to VWS. Jameson Reeves, currently studying at UC Berkeley, started the luminaria project as part of his senior project at Cardinal Newman High School to shine a light on vineyard workers.

In June of 2000, VWS opened it Farm Worker Resource Center in Boyes Hot Springs. In addition to facilitating housing development and health operations, the Resource Center serves migrants and the growing year-round-resident farm worker population with a variety of essential services, referrals, and training. The organization provides essential services and volunteers for the  Wine Country Half.
